I have a Pure3D II and think you will find that it has many more features
in terms of software capabilities and much better tech support than
Diamond.  Canopus is also the king of drivers.  I have seen the same games
with clearer sharper graphics on the Pure3D II than on the Diamond VII. 
If you want the best buy Canopus.
