Not that much more for the standard deviant, which vents better than the remedy for me.
Also, I have a $50 giro that vents almost as well as my $180 atmos and $210 s-works road helmet. Except that both giro helmets don't vent enough at the brow to keep sweat on my forehead from pouring down my face when it's 90+. The s-works helmet is the only helmet out there that is completely vented at the forehead, so in that case, if you want that feature, you pretty much don't have a choice.
