Problem is, buying a freesync compatible monitor isn't cheap - Most people buying a budget card will be buying a budget monitor. Cheapest freesync monitor I've seen so far is £279 with a resolution of 2560x1080. Would you use the 370 for that resolution? I wouldn't.
I reckon this is the reason why AMD hasn't included the tech but begs the question why it's present in the 360 but it is trickle down tech.
Again it's just trickle-down technology at the end of it, the monitors supporting the feature currently have the "new tech premium", it'll take a couple years till it's affordable for like priced budget cards and by that time the cards will be outdated anyway.

If it replace 750ti for the same price it will be competitive. Looking at the prices now, R7 370 and 750ti are the same price atm, 150Eur.
Even so you can get a R9 380 4GB for 200-220Eur which is quite faster so i dont see why would anyone buy this cards.

Tonga is another odd duck from AMD.
Higher trans count than Tahiti, few mm2 bigger, more recent GCN 1.1, texture compression --> it should be a resounding higher-performing Tahiti replacement,
but instead of Tahiti upgrade, AMD is using Tonga to fill positions step bellow Tahiti.
It's bad as it is, and without using it fight the freaking 950 (Ti).

Idk, I mean monitor OEM's are definitely going to use Freesync as a premium value-add to higher end monitors. It may trickle down eventually to the lower end stuff and in that case I can probably see budget gaming machines wanting it. But I don't think that will happen for a while.

Is it single-slot?
Is it half-height?
Does it flow moar GT/s then a 650Ti (unlike a 750Ti?)
Can it talk to my monitors, without doubling it's price in converters?
Will it being DX12 prevent me from playing games in my GTX 770? (Adding a GT 450 as sidekick to a GTX 280 was a bad plan.)

Hilbert, since you are comparing most people's expectations to expected reality, it's: "apparently sooner thAn expected". No big deal, just hurts my eyes.
