I find that the guiding is more stable for me in SGP than Maxim although I still have a LOT of drop outs. Sometimes it works fine all night, other times i'll drop out every hour or so. Doesn't matter if I am using SGP or Maxim, SGP just seems to like my ASI120MM-S better. In about a month I'll be making the move over to Maxim on a more permanent basis though, just awaiting the arrival on my new mount 
The SX AO should work fine with both PHD and Maxim.
As for drizzling, as long as you dither you are fine. Technically, if you didn't guide and intentionally had a slight PA offset and used suitably short subs you could drizzle just using PA misalignment and PE |
I never get drop outs with CCDsoft and I also get reliable guiding. PHD2 has been quite good as well once setup right. It gives more options but at the end of the day I don't think they add up to better guiding results.
I think I'll concentrate on using PHD2 for dithered and AO guiding.
