MSI's twin frozr is a beloved card.

the base clocks are about the same, but i thiink the frozr will stay cooler after you OC.

 

also, look at the ports, the frozr has only 1 DP port, and 2 DVI ports. this might be important in the long run.

yes, i just a card by it's ports.

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.

Zotac, 3 fan = cooler card, more overclocking. Msi is good too but I hate their design. 

heat sink design matters too, and the frozr is more open.

I own the MSI and I am REALLY happy with it. Max temps I have seen are 61 degrees under heavy load. The fans are extremely quiet and never go so fast that you can distinguish them between the other fans in your case.
