You can't use PhysX without a nVidia GPU.

Other than recorded cases of Nvidia cards having issues rendering certain shaders, multiple model versions for the same card ect ect.

I'm hesitant to go with ATI, i've been seriously considering the 3D nvidia offers, as well as physics, i just wish Project hydra would hurry up D:

Multiple versions of the same card is not a problem with the card, that's nVidia's terrible marketing.

I have the generation of card that is guilty of having issues with certain shaders and anisotropic filtering, and honestly I've never noticed anything wrong. Too low of a resolution maybe?

Brand-bias doesn't really help anyone. ATi is better than nVidia for one generation, and it can be the complete opposite for the next. As it is, ATi currently holds the lead and according to benches will still maintain the lead when Fermi is released.
