I would go with the sapphire one just because the cooling would be better. It uses copper heat pipes and the shape of the fan blades would provide better airflow. However the cost is a bit more, and in reality the head probably won't be an issue on either one, so if you want to save some money get the MSI card. Both have the same amount of power, they just have different cooling, and a bunch of bloatware that you will probably end up uninstalling anyway.

really Donny? cause the TF4 has larger fans, basically the same fan blade shape as the sapphire and has a larger aluminum grid array so more heat is dissipated. I can't say much for MSI's TF4 heat pipes because they just call it 'super pipe' but looking at it they seem to be aluminum, could be copper with an aluminum plating who knows. Honestly though I'd get the MSI TF, larger fans, larger grid array also a customer PCB while sapphire uses a reference PCB(I think) so it may have higher voltage limitations

To be honest it really doesn't matter though, I mean modern GPU's can withstand extremely high temps and if either one of these GPU's has a decent cooler then they should be able to cope just fine. When it comes right down to it, it just depends which one looks prettier in your pc, because they both have the exact same specs excluding the cooling.
