The ASUS direct CU2 is better because it's one of the quietest and coolest running boards out there.
Both of these reviews made the quiet to performance conclusion that the ASUS is best.

If you want to read the full reviews here they are

These are for difference cards but they should both act as an example of the cooler performance of the ASUS cards.
 
best one out there is the msi twin frozr 4 670. then gigabyte (but barely under the msi).

msi has overvolting which does increase the oc capability. you dont necessarily need it but if you want to squeeze a bit more juice out of it, it will be there for you. overvolting too much will fry your card. the cooling solution is pretty much the best. gigabyte is on par with this cooling solution

gigabyte just has awesome temps. im running 50C at 1ghz using furmark

asus is overpriced. performs on par of a msi PE card but costs more and doesnt have overvolting. cooling solution isnt the best either

evga is completely overrated. their ftw cooler is only recommended in situations where im using a really cramped chasis
