How would i work out the load baring strength difference between a hollow tube and a tube, with a x section throughout the length?(as per thread bellow)

I love designing things and in this case I'm asking in respect to space frame chassis for vehicle.
Strength is broad question and thinking compression strength form the end be similar to hollow, however load baring strength along the length I'm thinking should be a substantial difference..
Any help greatly appreciated
