Hi, I need help finding correct driver for video card

My card is a Ati Radeon HD 4870.

Now heres where my trouble begins.

I'm not sure if i should be going to visiontek.com to get the driver or at ati.com. This is what the box package looks like

But it is an ati card, so I should be able to go to ati.com and get the driver from there correct??

So heres where more of my trouble begins.

This is the link for the visiontek vista 32bit driver for the video card.

This is the ati link for the same video card... HD 4870..

Why is the visiontek driver saying version 8.11 yes the ati website driver says 9.6 WHICH ONE DO I DOWNLOAD??!?!?!

Also. On the ati website link I supplied, there is another driver download on the same page called "Legacy display driver" What is that?? DO I NEED TO DOWNLOAD THAT??

Damn it all... I'm so confused.
