Most people don't have powerful enough cards to run SGSSAA and transparency AA, even though i can in DX9 i just don't bother and neither does the majority, if it was a priority for the majority then we would all be using NV cards, the amount of screen shots i see with no AA is very high.

Rage has no official SLI support and there was a few games that NV didn't do to well out of the gate and AMD did much better, AMD Gaming Evolved titles swings and roundabouts, we can all pick games that each had issues with out of the gate and it changes nothing as many games have there own bugs out of the gate and need patches.
Which titles didn't Nvidia do well with out of the gate? I can't think of a single big title. Dragon Age 2 maybe which was almost a year ago. Does Rage even need sli support? I see maybe 50% gpu usage on my GTX560 and it stays at the 60fps cap. Is there a single resolution where even a GTX560ti would struggle in that game? I don't get your point.

I agree that AMD has gotten better with their software support but they have some things that they could stand to improve on. Nvidia cards are more feature rich. You've got 3d which is a big one for me, SGSSAA, transparency aa, and ambient occlusion. I would also venture to say better compatibility from what I've seen. AMD has come a long way with software support from what I saw when I had a 4870 but they still have a bit of a ways to go.

Which brings me back to my original point, when you are spending $550 on a video card like this thread is about I think you can afford the hit in many titles.
