Now that both are out... EVGA FTW3 or ASUS Strix 1080 ti?

Hi everyone, now that both cards are out and in use... I am curious which 1080 ti people prefer between the EVGA FTW3 and ASUS Strix. I received my pre-ordered FTW3 earlier this week and its performance is incredible - though it seems a little loud under load. I've never had a top-end GPU so maybe this is normal, but I wonder if the ASUS may have better noise levels. Room in my case is not a concern so I could swap it out for the larger ASUS card if it would be noticeably quieter. Any real-world comparisons now that both are out in the wild? Thanks!

I have seen the ASUS STRIX 980 Ti in action and it is louder than my Gigabyte G1 Gaming 980 Ti. The 1080 Ti has the exact same cooler on the ASUS so it might be as loud.
