Intel has released a blog post following the launch of a new GPU driver. The company has been releasing GPU drivers that often rivals competitors and even beats them in being the first to support newer titles. But the optimizations are always more important than the rate at which they’re released.
Additional improvements are added to the new “4311” driver reportedly, which increases the performance by few percent as compared to previous releases. Gamers will see a significant performance boost in the recently released Dead Space Remake.
Intel claims that there’s a 63% performance boost in Dead Space, but this is most likely because the previous release wasn’t optimized for the game at all. Other performance uplifts in various games are listed below (including Dead Space):
Dead Space Remake (DX12):
- Up to 55% uplift at 1080p with Ultra settings on Arc A750
- Up to 63% uplift at 1440p with High settings on Arc A750
F1 22 (DX12):
- Up to 6% uplift at 1440p with High settings on Arc A770
- Up to 7% uplift at 1440p with High settings on Arc A750
- Up to 17% uplift at 1080p with Ultra High Ray Tracing settings on Arc A750
Dying Light 2 Stay Human (DX12):
- Up to 6% uplift at 1080p with High Ray Tracing settings preset on Arc A770
- Up to 7% uplift at 1440p with High Ray Tracing settings preset on Arc A770
Dirt 5 (DX12):
- Up to 8% uplift at 1080p with Ultra High Ray Tracing settings on Arc A750
- Up to 4% uplift at 1440p with Ultra High Ray Tracing settings on Arc A750
Deathloop (DX12):
- Up to 4% uplift at 1080p with Very High and Ray Tracing Performance settings on Arc A750
- Up to 6% uplift at 1440p with Very High and Ray Tracing Performance settings on Arc A750
Other games show a performance boost ranging between 4%-17%, depending on the game’s settings. Games which were tested with ray-tracing also showed improvements. The driver is now available to download from here. It supports all Intel Arc mobile and desktop GPUs as well as some modern integrated solutions.
