    ATI is trash, shitty drivers (sometimes unusable) on every card I've owned from them.

    560ti has been great for me in my current system.

    Yet to find a game I cant run maxed at 1920x1080

    It also means you can save a shit ton on your heating bill.

    Dunno, always used Nvdia, been great for drivers. Brothers a pretty big ATI fan though and he's always had problems with his particular low end card and it's drivers. But meh could be exceptions.

    Never had issues with either drivers either. Only thing i would say about ati is lack of PhysX support. But not such a big deal really.

    ATI having bad drivers is from ages ago, they're fine now

    You can turn on physx for ATI cards for most games with a signal line of code.

    The only problem is that it renders from your CPU so unless you have an i7 @ 4GHz expect some horrible framerates compared to a Nvidea card.

    PhysX isn't anything special anyways, just NVidia trying to push it as a reason to get their cards.
