Intel has released a new graphics driver for its GPUs from Intel 6th to latest 12th Gen (Alder Lake) on Windows 10 and Windows 11.
This new driver (version 30.0.101.1069) brings the following changes:
GAMING HIGHLIGHTS:
– Fix for crash in Battlefield 2042 on 11th Generation Intel Core Processors with Intel Iris Xe graphics.ISSUES FIXED:
– Minor graphic anomalies seen in Shadow of the Tomb Raider (DX11).
– Error message seen when running Rise of the Tomb Raider (DX12) on Intel Iris Xe Discrete graphics.

v30.0.101.1121
Quick test of this driver on an Intel Core i5-11600K (with an UHD Graphics 750 GPU):
– GL-Z:
OpenGL support
v30.0.101.1121
This driver exposes OpenGL 4.6 with 267 OpenGL extensions for an UHD Graphics 750. Same support than previous driver (v100.9955).
- GL_VENDOR: Intel - GL_RENDERER: Intel(R) UHD Graphics 750 - GL_VERSION: 4.6.0 - Build 30.0.101.1121 - GL_SHADING_LANGUAGE_VERSION: 4.60 - Build 30.0.101.1121 - OpenGL Extensions: 267 extensions (GL=245 and WGL=22)
Vulkan support
v30.0.101.1121
This driver exposes Vulkan 1.2.196 but no new extension is exposed (maybe new extensions have been added for Alder Lake GPUs. As soon as I receive an Alder Lake processor, I will update this article).
