Today, dollar for dollar, is the 318 faster than the 340 ???

Post 1362, friend. I don't imagine too much before I make it a reality. :)

What I'm saying is you are imagining scenarios where you would have to face the dilemma of spending $2000 on a 340 or going with a free 318. I already told you there was $400 340 blocks still being sold. I bought one. You're imagining that they all cost $700-$800.
