The question is simple,which one should I choose? The MSI model (because it is OCed by default) has bigger clock numbers,while the ASUS model (non-oc version) is a bit underpowered.
In my country,the price difference between them is roughly ~£13 / €15.5 (the MSI is more expensive).

I haven't used their software ,but from pictures I can see that it would be easy to raise their clock numbers to match each other or even more (close to 2000 Mhz) (some clicks maybe ,little info would be nice!).

About cooling,I read that ASUS Strix doesn't cool the memory unit,while the MSI does.
Also MSI has more power phases,I don't know if it matters anything.
Both of them are quiet and decent,but still can't decide.

The drivers are the same regardless of card brand, they are made by Nvidia.
