Intel Releases Arc GPU Graphics Drivers 101.5590 WHQL

Controller Master


Intel on Friday (14/06) released the latest version of the Arc GPU Graphics Drivers. Version 101.5590 WHQL adds Game On (day-zero) optimization for Destiny 2: The Final Shape, and Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree. For the Arc A-series discrete GPUs, the drivers also enhance performance of a couple of older Direct3D 11 and Direct3D 10 titles. For Chivalry 2, you can expect up to 13% improved performance at 1080p with epic settings; while for the original Crysis (2007), performance can be up by 10% with very high settings. The drivers provide similar performance uplifts for the Arc Series integrated graphics in Core Ultra “Meteor Lake” processors, with up to 16% uplifts for Chivalry 2, and up to 6% for Crysis 2 (2011). An intermittent application crash with No Rest for the Wicked has been fixed.
