Intel’s latest graphics driver supports Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0, Dysterra, Sonic Frontiers, Sonic, and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales. XeSS Super Resolution has been added to at least a dozen titles, if not more. In addition, a bunch of performance optimizations, including frame rate boosts of up to 8%, have also been factored into the update.
Fixes:
- Arc Control may not start automatically after reboot.
- Arc Control may not show up in Add or Remove programs list after the update.
- Arc Control may incorrectly show Studio Capture as active when putting the system to sleep while recording
- Resetting Arc Control to application defaults may not reset global “Tearing Migration” modes to default
- Some Arc Control Telemetry metrics may not align with 3rd party applications or built-in OS functions
Hot-Plugging fixes:
- Hot-plugging a secondary display with Arc Control invoked may cause Arc Control to be unresponsive.
- Hot-plugging a display with Arc Control Studio Capture audio device set to display audio may cause an error when attempting to capture or broadcast.
- Hot-plugging peripheral devices, such as cameras, microphones, or displays, while Arc Control is open may cause Arc Control to become unresponsive.
New Features:
- New Game Sorting
- UI Changes
- Auto Game Highlights supported games list shown in the right tab
