The difference between the 4300 and 4400 is additional 8% in performance, for 17% more. Arguably, those 17% are only $20, which is negligible in the overall system cost - but once you apply this logic to all of the components this tends to blow the system cost. In this case its a possible option, but when trying to find the "Value" proposition, the 4300 is good enough for me. This is certainly a possibility.
