Intel has released the latest version of its Arc GPU Graphics drivers, the version 101.6130 Beta. The new driver update brings Game On support on Intel Arc A-series GPUs and Intel Core Ultra CPUs with Intel Arc GPUs for a couple of new games including Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, REDACTED, and Red Dead Redemption. According to Intel, the initial game launch load times for Dragon Age: The Veilguard are significantly improved on Intel Core Ultra Series 2 CPUs with built-in Intel Arc GPUs, which lead to a temporary increase in Graphics Driver package size.

The new Intel Arc GPU Graphics Drivers 101.6130 Beta also increases gaming performance in Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered by up to 6 percent on average at 1080p resolution and Very High settings. Unfortunately, Intel did not fix any previously seen bugs, so there is still an extensive list of known issues with both the drivers and the Arc Control.

Without making much noise, AMD lifted the memory overclocking limits of the Radeon RX 7900 GRE graphics card with its latest Adrenalin 24.3.1 WHQL drivers, TechPowerUp found. The changelog is a bit vague and states "The maximum memory tuning limit may be incorrectly reported on AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE graphics products."—we tested it. The RX 7900 GRE has been around since mid-2023, but gained prominence as the company gave it a global launch in February 2024, to help AMD better compete with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Super. Before this, the RX 7900 GRE had started out its lifecycle as a special edition product confined to China, and its designers had ensured that it came with just the right performance positioning that didn't end up disrupting other products in the AMD stack. One of these limitations had to do with the memory overclocking potential, which was probably put in place to ensure that the RX 7900 GRE has a near-identical total board power as the RX 7800 XT.

Shortly after the global launch of the RX 7900 GRE, and responding to drama online, AMD declared the limited memory overclocking range a bug and promised a fix. The overclocking limits are defined in the graphics card VBIOS, so increasing those limits would mean shipping BIOS updates for over a dozen SKUs from all the major vendors, and requiring users to upgrade it by themselves. Such a solution isn't very practical, so AMD implemented a clock limit override in their new drivers, which reprograms the power limits on the GPU during boot-up. Nicely done, good job AMD!

The Moore Threads MTT S80 first attracted wider media attention last summer due to it being introduced as the world's first PCIe Gen 5 gaming graphics card. Unfortunately, its performance prowess in gaming benchmarks did not match early expectations, especially for a 200 W TDP-rated unit with 4096 "MUSA" cores. Evaluators discovered that driver issues have limited the full potential of MTT GPUs—it is speculated that Moore Threads has simply repurposed existing PowerVR architecture under their in-house design: "Chunxaio." The Chinese firm has concentrated on driver improvements in the interim—mid-February experimentations indicated 100% performance boosts for MTT S80 and S70 discrete GPUs courtesy of driver version 240.90. Germany's ComputerBase managed to import Moore Threads MTT S80 and S30 models for testing purposes—in an effort to corroborate recently published performance figures, as disclosed by Asian review outlets.

The Moore Thread MTT S80—discounted down to $164 last October—was likely designed with MMO gamers in mind. VideoCardz (based on ComputerBase findings) discussed the card's struggles when weighed against Team Red's modern day integrated solutions: "S80 falls short when compared to the Ryzen 5 8600G, featuring the Radeon 760M iGPU with RDNA 3 graphics. A geometric mean across various titles reveals the S80's lag, but there are exceptions, like DOTA 2, where it takes the lead in framerate. It's clear that MTT GPUs (have a) less emphasized focus on supporting AAA titles." ComputerBase confirmed that DirectX 12 API support is still lacking, meaning that many popular Western games titles remain untested on the Moore Threads MTT S80 graphics card. The freshly launched entry-level MTT S30 card produced "1/4 of the performance" when compared to its flagship sibling.

Intel has released the latest version of its Arc GPU Graphics Drivers, version 101.5234 WHQL. This appears to be a major update as it brings Game On Driver support for Arc A-Series Graphics for plenty of new games including Enshrouded, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, Tekken 8, and the recently released and quiet popular Palworld, as well as Game On Driver support on Intel Core Ultra CPUs with Intel Arc Graphics for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, Tekken 8, and Palworld.

The new drivers also bring plenty of game performance improvements for a rather extensive list of games for both Arc A-series Graphics and Intel Core Ultra CPUs with Arc Graphics. These improvements range anywhere from 4 percent, up to 268 percent, and include both DirectX 11 and DirectX 12 titles. You can check out the full list below. Intel also fixed a couple of issues, including Alan Wake 2 white corruption issue on reflective surfaces, Sons of the Forest corruption on the item text issue, and issues with Intel Smooth Sync in some DirectX 11 titles. It also fixes issues with on Intel Core Ultra CPUs with Arc Graphics where The Talos Principle may experience an application crash with certain upscaling presets, Call of Duty Modern Warfare III application crash issues, and Blackmagic Fusion application crash during render operations.
