High output Jet burner or Ring? And why?

ring burner outputs about 170,000btus versus the jet burner 140,00btu's. I have both and think that both heat the mash water fairly quickly. My suggestion is that if the ring burner is a couple dollars more then get it, but if its about a 50 to 100 dollar difference then go for the jet burner

I voted Ring burner b/c that's what I have. 170K BTU and I'm happy with it.

Ring burners spread the heat out more and are easier to throttle down.
