Intel Arc GPU Graphics Drivers 101.4314 WHQL Released

[btarunr]

Intel Graphics today released the latest version of the Arc GPU Graphics Drivers. Version 101.4314 WHQL doesn't add optimization for any new games, but there are some feature additions. The drivers add Vulcan Video Extensions support for hardware-accelerated H.265/HEVC decode. The extensions provide means for applications to use video acceleration features of GPUs without involving DirectX. Besides this, the new drivers fix an issue where some USB audio devices exhibit intermittent audio stuttering (caused by haphazard OS tick-rate with these GPUs present).

"stupid is as stupid does"

They should stop worrying about adding new features & just concentrate on fixing ALL the "known issues" first.... once that has been accomplished 100%, then think about adding new features, and don't release those until ALL the issues they create are also fixed....
