You are right, in the ONE GAME it which it has been implemented it has been demonstrably detrimental to performance, therefore it should be turned off.Async Compute is a feature you can rely on, just not on Nvidia hardware. In fact on Nvidia hardware it seems reliable in that it always slows down the graphics hardware.
Overclocking isn't guaranteed, true. But by your logic a 5820k is a stupid buy compared to a 6700k. Not how it works in reality.
It's funny you should mention hardware features you can't make up for, because GCN lacks conservative rasterization, but nobody wants to talk about it, because being vehemently anti-nvidia is fashionable nowadays thanks to YouTube celebrities and people who make anti gameworks videos.
If async is a 10% boost, all you need a is a card that's 10% faster to negate the bonus.
