Delaying the update for a few days is generally a good idea. Of course, Intel isn’t shipping new features with the February 2023 update, and most users won’t notice any changes after applying the patch. The driver can be downloaded here.Last but not least, Intel Wireless Bluetooth 22.200.0 driver includes functional updates and security improvements. Intel is also releasing its latest 31.0.101.4255 WHQL driver today which adds support for Resident Evil IV: Remake and also improves performance across variants games and issues several bug fixes. A workaround is to use the “Reset to Defaults” button. Modifying performance sliders may fail to apply back to their default values.Using Arc Control Studio capture with AVC codec selected may incorrectly use the HEVC codec.Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (DX12) may experience application crash during gameplay.Overwatch 2 (DX12) may see lag or freeze while launching the game.Portal with RTX (Vulkan) may experience application crash when loading to gameplay.Conqueror’s Blade (DX11) may exhibit corruption in benchmark mode.Counter Strike Global Offensive on Intel Arc Graphics for Laptops.Blender in Material Preview viewport mode.Performance optimizations on Intel Arc A-series Graphics for: Intel Game On Driver support on Intel Arc A-series Graphics for: Intel is also sharing the scaling factors of its XeSS upscaling technology which are listed in the chart below: For example, if you are targeting your game to run at 60 FPS, you have half the millisecond's worth of extra time off each frame for your rendering budget.Ī game demo of Shadow of The Tomb Raider from Crystal Dynamics is showcased which gives us a comparison between XeSS 1.0 and XeSS 1.1 with the latest version cleaning up almost all artifacts that were encountered in the previous version such as Moire and flickering. In terms of performance, what this means is that gamers will notice a small performance boost as the XeSS Kernel runtimes are reduced across all visual fidelity and upscaling modes. Last topic is the upcoming XeSS Dataset Toolkit that makes it easy to collect and assemble a custom XeSS model training dataset for a particular game title. We will also talk about best practices and guidelines on how to integrate XeSS into a game title.

Then we follow that by going through updates that XeSS 1.1 brings and watch demos on Intel integrated and discrete GPUs. And it does that at a fraction of the cost of high-resolution native rendering.ĭuring this talk, we introduce XeSS and cover some of the challenges that upscalers have to deal with. XeSS is an AI-based super-sampling technique which reconstructs a low-resolution non-antialiased frame into a high-resolution fully-antialiased frame. The new model also integrates new Kernels that include Faster XMX kernels (Arc Alchemist), Faster DP4a Kernels (TGL / ADL / RPL iGPU), and Faster Cross-Vendor kernels (SM 6.4 GPUs).
