I have a faint hope that they will improve the Async even more with Big Pascal. Would suck if that big push for AC actually happens and I'm stuck with subpar performance for a few years.

Then just upgrade to Volta cause hoping that they'll instantaneously improve the microarchitecture in less than 6 months is wishful thinking when it takes months to validate silicon and do hardware debugging ... 

Async shouldn't even be a factor at all for Nvidia when their really good at plowing through geometry heavy passes in a game. Personally speaking there are a quarter dozen or so worse things that could happen to Nvidia like Microsoft ruining shader model 6 for them just like what happened to the GeForce FX series with shader model 2 ...
