Intel’s Latest Beta GPU Driver Comes With More Issues Than Improvements
Intel has just dropped a brand new update for its Arc GPU graphics drivers, but there’s something a little strange. While version 101.6299 Beta promises “Game On” optimisation for the highly anticipated Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 and STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl, Intel has neglected to tell us exactly how much of a performance boost users can expect… so I suspect it’s not a lot or they’d be shouting about it.
This release is light on bug fixes, focusing solely on prepping for the two new game releases. However, it seems to have introduced a fresh batch of issues, impacting popular titles like Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Doom Eternal, as well as creative applications such as Topaz Video AI and Blackmagic Design DaVinci Resolve Studio. The problems range from graphical glitches and crashes to performance hiccups. Not exactly looking great is it?
