TNF is better, more expensive, but better. TRUST ME

I actually have both... the Khumbu is NOT wind resistant in the slightest. I've ridden my bike around campus with both of these fleeces, and I won't use the Khumbu on a cold day anymore. Its basically like you're not wearing a fleece at higher speeds. The this would be the same effect if the wind were 15-20mph and you were standing still. The fleece itself is denser, and I would say softer, than the Khumbu's 200 weight fleece, but the jacket is also more expensive!
