MSI 670 PE or EVGA 670 FTW?

[Se7enn]

Hello,

First here is my current setup:

i5 2500k @ 3.3 GHz
ASRock Extreme3 Gen3
EVGA GTX 560 ti
Xclio 550w PSU
Corsair Vengeance 8GB @ 1600 Mhz

I'll be looking into replaces my 560 ti soon for something with a lot more power, particularly a 670.
So my two choices are:

The MSI PE

or

the EVGA FTW edition.

But I have a few questions.

1) I have a HAF 922 case with the stock fans still installed, added another 200mm fan on the side, and I have air filters on them.
So which card would benefit the most from my cooling setup? I'd like to keep the card under 70C if possible.

2) I have seen lots of customer reviews saying that their 670 FTW card were either DOA or dead within a few weeks or months.
I haven't seen or read anything about the MSI PE cards being defective. Would they be the best bet for that reason?

I have been burnt too many times in the past by defective products.

3) Is this PSU good for a future SLI setup of either of the cards?

And lastly, I do not plan to OC the cards. The factory OC will do well enough for me.

Get the MSI PE for the Twin Frozr cooler that keeps the GPU temps much lower. Lower GPU temps on Kepler cards allow higher and more consistently sustained Turbo Boosts.
