How so? they already are even in DX12 and vulkan games. The gains AMD cards receive so far is not enough to offset how well NVIDIA cards are allready performing plus there are very few games that are being made with DX12 or Vulkan DX11 is still the got to for many games coming out.
Only what I skimmed over that was publicly released. Looked like it was just enabling vsync and dialing up the clocks. Frames finish more quickly and TDP decreases as the card idles a greater percentage of time. Then use frame pacing to kick off the frame just in time to hit the vblank. The WoW example they provided was cutting the FPS in half, likely along with power consumption, but then using that free power to drive clocks higher. Sort of on par with overclocking your card and enabling vsync, but tricking the game into getting the timing right. Double the FPS but discard every other frame for better latency or something. Don't want to render a frame really quickly then wait a while for the vblank. That's likely where the dependent part comes from.
Seems strange how they mention GPU Queue-latency management though if all they are doing is VSYNC and frame pacing unless they are making it sound more than it really is or more likely some reports reading too much into it.

CheersHOW TO SEE EFFECT OF HIALGO CHILL
When HiAlgo CHILL starts, you will also see a scrolling Performance Monitor graph:
Each 1-pixel-wide vertrical line here corresponds to one frame. The graph shows how much time, in milliseconds, is spent on each frame by the GPU (green) and the CPU (yellow). It also shows, in whitish-bluish shade, the amount of idle time per frame, when the system was cooling down due to HiAlgo CHILL intervention. The more whitish you see, the more your system is cooling.
To hide/unhide the monitor press the "HOME" key.
CAN I RUN CHILL ALONG WITH BOOST OR SWITCH, OR SHOULD I CHOOSE ONE?
Usually you only need one of them - and this is why: if you have a weak GPU you need BOOST or SWITCH; if your GPU is ok and works ok for the first few minutes into gameplay, but then your game starts stuttering (because your computer overheats) - then you need CHILL.
In a rare case your GPU is both weak, and also overheats, you may try running BOOST (or SWITCH) and CHILL together -- this is an unsupported feature, but it seems to work
, 390/390x were "refreshes" without the 5 as well.
Not really, R9 295x2 has both a 5 and x2, despite not being a refresh/upgrade
Not at all performance with the 1060 is pretty dead even in most games, plus if we look at only DX11 games the 1060 trounces the 480. The fact is there is this assumption that NVIDIA somehow will magically become uncompetitive under DX12 and Vulkan and that's a ludicrous assumption.

XT2 is an entirely new product, not a revision, otherwise it would be 485 instead of 480.
Let alone on name, score and Zauba price I'd be almost willing to bet it's a dual card. Double price, double score, rebirthed moniker we have not seen since 7970XT with a '2' on the end. AMD fans know what 2 means in the past. Only thing I can think of that could throw that would be an obscure mobile variant model.

Apple did the shitty GPU in the macbooks now, so people will be clamouring for updated new shiny in 2017. Gotta sell the same shit again eh
