I couldn't really find any tearing with 180.53,

Hardware specs:
Asus P5W DH Deluxe, Core 2 Duo E6600
64bit system, ~amd64 Gentoo Linux
2.6.30-rc2-zen0+
Samsung SyncMaster205BW

update:

during desktop-usage there seems to be more tearing with 180.53 than with 185.18.04

so from my experience 180.53 is better for gaming and 185.18.04 better for desktop / composited desktop usage

just my 2ct
