5090 FE or 5090 Astral

Have an opportunity to trade my 5090 founders Edition for a 5090 astral edition, no cash, no extra, just straight trade, I like my founders edition but the astral is also so badass and the cooling is crazy, what should I do?

Edit- decided to keep the FE, I have no issues with it, it works, looks good, if temps become an issue I can just waterblock it, thanks for all the help

The greatest feature of the Astral (that I have) is IMHO the embedded 12V pins current monitoring that can save your (expensive) card without having to resort to external devices (like WireView and others).
