Synthetic Blend? I changed my oil earlier and didnt realize that I bought a blend instead of fully synthetic until I had drained it and was ready to put the fresh in. Any considerable differences?

I run Valvoline Durablend and i like it. I used Mobile1 synthetic for one pil change and didnt like it. The engine was alot noiser and had a lot more valvetrain noise so i went to the durablend and like it. It seems to stay a lot cleaner a lot longer to me and it doesnt seem to use much at all if any over a oil change and im getting 28-30mpg on the highway so i guess i cant complain. I know some people say it may not have all the same properties and be as good as fully synthetic but i change my oil before 3000 miles so i dont worry about that as much. So try it you may like it. I do.
