Intel has launched a new GPU graphics driver for the Arc A770 and Arc A750, version 31.0.101.3802, that optimizes many games with minor performance improvements. Moreover, there are various fixes issues regarding nine titles. It might not be the blazing-fast driver update we were wishing for, but it is a step in the right direction.
Intel has added four new titles to this new driver, namely, Sonic Frontiers, Marvel’s Spiderman: Miles Morales, Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0, and Dysterra.
Intel has optimized eight titles, featuring a 3% boost at 1440P Epic settings in Chorus, an 8% FPS improvement to Dirt 5 at Ultra High settings, and 3% improvements at 1080P and 1440P Ultra settings in Far Cry 6. There is also a 3% improvement in Forza Horizon 5 in both 1080P with Extreme settings and 1440P with High settings and a 7% FPS boost to Ghostwire Tokyo at 1440P with Cinematic settings and a 5% improvement at 1080P in Gotham Nights with the Highest preset setting.
Intel has also added a 3% FPS boost to Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy at 1080P with Ultra settings, 1440P with High settings, and Sniper Elite 5 with a 3% boost at 1080P Ultra settings.
These improvements are not essential, but they are better than nothing and show Intel concentrating on ironing out Intel’s driver optimization issues, which are causing problems with the performance of its Arc Alchemist GPUs.
For bug fixes, Intel fixes a ray-traced reflection bug in Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered that let the application crash, a bug in Total War: Warhammer III where color corruption can take place in certain regions on Game Pass, and a bug fix for Saints Row where black corruption can happen in missions such as ‘Observe and Report.’
Another bug fix about Overwatch 2 fixes minor intermittent hitching or stuttering at the time of gameplay, a fix for Deathloop where vertical line corruption can take place with ray tracing enabled, and the other one in Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Extraction, that fixes flickering in-game menus.
For the last three, Intel fixed a bug in Battlefield 2042 in which the game can crash while entering a match. Next, in Hitman, Intel solved a bug in which texture corruption can occur in the training model. At last, the driver provides a Diablo 2: Resurrected fix for black square corruption in a few areas of Act 2.
