Intel Arc GPU Graphics Drivers 101.6737 WHQL Released
Intel has released the latest version of its Arc GPU Graphics Drivers, version 101.6737 WHQL. The newest drivers update from Intel adds Game On Driver support for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered games on Intel Arc B-series and A-series GPUs, as well as Intel Core Ultra CPUs with built-in Intel Arc GPUs. The new driver update also improves average performance on Intel Arc B-series GPUs in Infinity Nikki by up to 7 percent at 1080p resolution with Ultra Settings and up to 5 percent at 1440p with Ultra Settings.
The new Intel Arc GPU Graphics Drivers update also fixes a couple of issues on Intel Arc B-series GPUs, including application crash in Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and intermittent crash on certain motherboards with ray tracing enabled in Cyberpunk 2077. Intel also fixed issue with Call of Duty Black Ops 6 on Intel Arc A-series GPUs where shadows could exhibit darker than expected in certain campaign scenarios. The same issue is also fixed on Intel Core Ultra Series 2 CPUs with built-in Intel Arc GPUs, alongside issues where users may experience less than expected performance with screen recording on certain devices and intermittent freeze issue with video playback on external display while performing certain operations.
