Intel has released a new graphics driver for its Arc GPUs (Arc A380, A770, A750, A310, A770M, A550M, A730M, A370M, A350M).
GAMING HIGHLIGHTS:
Intel Game On Driver support on Intel Arc A-series Graphics for:
– World of Warcraft: Dragonflight
– Warhammer 40K: Darktide
– Marvel’s Midnight Suns
– The Callisto Protocol
– Fortnite (Chapter 4/UE5.1)Intel continues to improve the DirectX 9 game experience with Intel Arc Graphics. This software package contains performance optimizations for:
– League of Legends
– Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
– Payday 2
– Stellaris
– Starcraft 2
– Guild Wars 2
– NiZhan
– Moonlight BladeIntel continues to improve the DirectX 11 and 12 game experience with Intel Arc Graphics. This software package contains performance optimizations for:
– Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 (DX12)
– Far Cry New Dawn (DX11)
– Shadow of the Tomb Raider (DX11)
– DOTA 2 (DX11)
– Dying Light 2 (DX12)DEVELOPER HIGHLIGHTS:
– Support for Agility SDK 1.608.0 developer features:
– Enhanced Barriers for finer-grained control of barriers
– Support of Vulkan to D3D12 Dynamic Pipeline StateThis Intel Arc software package includes support for optimized Microsoft DirectStorage 1.1 with GPU accelerated decompression for developer integration.
FIXED ISSUES:
– Victoria 3 (DX11) may exhibit ghosting corruption when applying MSAA x16 settings.
– Hearts of Iron IV (DX11) may exhibit texture corruption when applying MSAA x16 settings.
– Stellaris (DX9) may exhibit texture and flickering corruption during Star previews.
– Sonic Frontiers (DX11) may experience flickering corruption on Intel Arc A380 Graphics Products
when Frame Rate Limit setting is set to 60. A workaround is to set Frame Rate Limit to 30.
UPDATE (2022.12.14): v31.0.101.3975
GAMING HIGHLIGHTS:
Intel Game On Driver support on Intel Arc A-series Graphics for:
– The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Next-Gen Update
– High on Life
– Conqueror’s BladePERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS:
Game performance improvements versus the Intel 31.0.101.3959 WHQL software driver on Intel Arc A770 Graphics Products for:
– PUBG: Battlegrounds (DX11)
