I would disagree to say only to the extent that all three programs do it a
little differently from each other and the best way to configure seems to be
mor edependant on your hardware. I have had better success with all of them
on different machines. Just use what works; try all three.If only parts of
the confog file are best from each one, then cut and paste (method 4).
