Intel Arc logo



 
Intel has released a new graphics driver (the 6th for 2023!) for its Arc GPUs (Arc A380, A770, A750, A310, A770M, A550M, A730M, A370M, A350M) and integrated GPUs (11th Gen, 12th Gen and 13th Gen). Here are the main changes:

GAMING HIGHLIGHTS:
Intel Game On Driver support on Intel Arc A-series Graphics for:
– Destiny 2: Lightfall
– Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty

Game performance optimizations on Intel Arc A-series Graphics for:
– Halo Infinite* (DX12)

FIXED ISSUES:
Intel Arc Graphics Products:
– Halo Infinite (DX12) may exhibit color corruption during gameplay when Reflections settings are enabled.
– Red Dead Redemption 2 (Vulkan) may experience application crash in benchmark mode when Screen Type is Fullscreen.

Intel Core Processor Products:
– Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection (DX12) may exhibit texture or striped corruption during gameplay.
– Warhammer 40,000: Darktide (DX12) may exhibit texture or striped corruption during gameplay.
– Dirt 5 (DX12) may exhibit texture corruption in the skybox.

UPDATE: beta driver 31.0.101.4146

GAMING HIGHLIGHTS:
Intel Game On Driver support on Intel Arc A-series Graphics for:
– Deceive Inc.
– Diablo 4 (Beta)

Game performance optimizations on Intel Arc A-series Graphics for:
– Sons of The Forest

FIXED ISSUES:
Intel Arc Graphics Products:
– The Riftbreaker (DX12) may exhibit black line corruption with the Xbox Game Pass version.
– Resident Evil 4 Remake Chainsaw Demo (DX12) may experience lower than expected performance during gameplay.

Intel Core Processor Products:
– Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection (DX12) may exhibit texture or striped corruption during gameplay.
– Warhammer 40,000: Darktide (DX12) may exhibit texture or striped corruption during gameplay.
– Dirt 5 (DX12) may exhibit texture corruption in the skybox.

The version 4148 exposes the same OpenGL and Vulkan API support than version 4146.

 

OpenGL support

This driver exposes OpenGL 4.6 with 265 OpenGL extensions for an Arc A750. Same support than v3802, v3975 and v4125. The OpenGL extensions list is available HERE.

GL_RENDERER: Intel(R) Arc(TM) A750 Graphics
GL_VENDOR: Intel
GL_VERSION: 4.6.0 - Build 31.0.101.4146
OpenGL extensions: 265 

 

Vulkan support

This driver exposes Vulkan 1.3.238 and 125 device extensions for an Arc A750 GPU. Four device extensions have been added:

– VK_EXT_device_address_binding_report
– VK_KHR_sampler_ycbcr_conversion
– VK_EXT_mesh_shader
– VK_EXT_attachment_feedback_loop_layout
