AMD updated its video card drivers for the miners

The largest producer of specialized equipment for mining Bitmain has announced a new device designed to produce crypto currency Ethereum. This news shook the position of the company AMD, which is engaged in the production of video cards, but the developer does not intend to surrender positions, yielding competitors their share of profits. Today, AMD announced the release of new mining drivers for its video cards.

"Serious workloads when working with a blocker may cause a decrease in the performance of video cards. The newest update of the software for our graphics adapters is designed to eliminate problems with the efficiency in the production of crypto currency using video cards, "AMD reports in the update description.

Note to the release of the update for Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition 18.3.4 states that the software update does not contain any other major innovations and is not intended for games and graphics loads - including the uniqueness of the latest software version.

AMD does not promise any further updates aimed at improving the performance of video cards under mining. Apparently, the current updates and "patches" should be enough to ensure a significant increase in performance without damage to the cards. Regularly "fix bugs" related to mining, the company also does not promise, but the appearance of such an update is very encouraging, allowing us to hope that similar corrections will be released in the future.

This update is a logical step from AMD. Yesterday, analysts lowered the forecast associated with the company's profit, due to the announcement of a new ASIC-miner from Bitmain, so the software stability improvement while producing crypto currency can really somehow improve the business of AMD, instilling confidence in users and pushing them to further use the company's video cards.
