It will be fine, the ASUS card will slow down to the MSI card's clock speed.

The msi cards usually boost higher, so the asus would slow down in this case

Definitely. It will perform about the same as a GTX 780.

I recently upgraded from one 660 ti to 2 in SLI. After OCing and finding a stable gpu/mem clock I was able to get my FireStrike Extreme Score on 3DMark to 4705 (Titan / 4770k = Over All Score is 4710) I was pretty shocked at my results. I only really got another 660 ti because I was able to get it used for 150$. It may be worth upgrading to a 7970, now that they are so cheap, and trying to sell your 660 ti.
