As far as I know, AMD has said it would enable 12 cards this October on the biostar b250 and 19 cards on the Asus B250 mining expert on December 2017.

From the info-graphic Asus posted, the B250 mining motherboard only supports up to 11 AMD GPU's with the new Windows driver. For 19 cards in Windows, you need to use at least 8 Nvidia P106 mining cards apparently.

New option in Radeon Settings toggles the ability to switch to Compute/Graphics mode.

Radeon Software now supports compute workloads for up to 12 installed Radeon RX 400, Radeon RX 500 or Radeon RX Vega series graphics products on Windows®10 system configurations.

With their latest GPU driver, Radeon Software version 17.10.2, AMD has added support for several new features to their GPU, which includes a feature that is targeted specifically at cryptocurrency miners.

This new driver adds to Radeon Settings a new GPU workload option, which defaults to Gaming but now can be toggled to load a "Compute" mode, which is designed to offer the best performance on compute-oriented workloads, like cryptocurrency mining.

If this new function works as advertised, AMD GPUs should be able to achieve higher hash rates without much or any change in power consumption, which is great news for miners. AMD has also updated their drivers to offer support for up to 12 individual AMD GPUs (Polaris or newer) in a single system, allowing more GPUs to be connected to a single motherboard for the purposes of mining. This feature could be used for other tasks, but we all know that mining is what AMD is aiming for here.

Looks like AMD is realizing GPU mining is going to be around a while  Grin
