Default Welding Aluminum vs Braising Aluminum.

I want to join some pieces of square aluminum to build a frame.

Is brazing on Aluminum as strong as welding Aluminum ?
If Not, whats the downside ?
Is it half as strong ? or just don't do it ?

Or:
Should I just stick with square steel tubing and just buy a wire welder ?
Can a simple wire welding weld 1/8" aluminum ?

Any help is appreciated
Thanks
