Intel Arc driver boosts fps in one Assassin’s Creed game by over 300%
Driver updates, for Intel Arc graphics cards or otherwise, are less exciting as they are necessary for a great experience in the latest games. However, a new beta driver, sees performance in one Assassin’s Creed game absolutely skyrocket to a degree I didn’t expect.
The Intel Graphics Beta Driver, 31.0.1-1.4514, contains the usual support for current releases you expect to see, this time for AEW: Fight Forever and Layers of Fear. It also introduces frame rate improves for F1 22, Deahtloop and… the near-decade old Assassin’s Creed Unity.
What’s most striking about the AC notes, however, is that this driver provides an “up to 313% uplift at 1440p with High settings”. It’s a similar, albeit slightly less impressive story at 1080p, but Intel stops short of providing frame rates for context.
Here are the Intel Graphics Beta Driver 31.0.1-1.4514 highlights:
While we highly doubt we’ll see similar improvements following the Assassin’s Creed Mirage release date, it’s great to see Intel not forget about older games in the series.
