If your card is very new and has "glitches" with the older driver in the
resticted modules package (fglrx) then yes, the driver off their website
may fix the issue.
But... for disadvantages, every time the kernel updates, you will need
to recompile the fglrx module or X wont start.
Gets old after awhile. If you don't have any issues with the one in the
repos, I'd stick with it.
