Is DIAMOND brand a good buy?

Someone told me they have had a lot of problems with their cards.

I've only seen low end diamond cards...So yeah, I'm guessing they're not that great.

I had a Diamond x800GTO I believe, it was a good card, did what it was suppose to.

Theres really not much of a difference between brands, with the exception of the fancy packaging, included accessories, and the type of cooler it has.
