I have been using ATI (AMD) and NVIDIA cards off and on based on performance and feature sets most of my career here, and I am wondering if this current generation if there was a noticable difference in the rendering between each company?
I took notice in Fallout New Vegas in which I initially played with a GeForce GTX 460 768MB and cannot recall a single rendering artifact...
more recently i played Fallout New Vegas with a Radeon HD 6970 CrossFireX setup, and noticed a few rendering artifacts/glitches... some general imperfections in the rendering of certain scenes like far off in the distance on mountains... I was wondering if it was related to CrossFireX or the Radeons themselves so I went as far as to take one card out of the system... I may have still encountered some imperfections in the rendering compared to the NVIDIA GTX 460...
I hope to perform a much more controlled test in the near future, but was curious of other's observations about this?
 
Fallout is a TWIMTBP game and has known issues with AMD cards, especially with Crossfire setups.
 
Fallout: NV runs much better with crossfire disabled, I've found.
