Intel's Arc graphics cards receive yet another major performance uplift with the latest driver

An Intel Arc A770 Limited Edition graphics card from various angles.

Intel has just released a new driver update for its Arc lineup of GPUs. That wouldn't normally be worth shouting about, but this driver reportedly delivers an average uplift of 30% across a long list of DirectX 11 titles, and it's not the first driver to deliver such improvements either.

The 31.0.101.5234 (WHQL Certified) driver provides a massive 268% increase in average FPS in Just Cause 4 at 1080p and 160% in Just Cause 3 at 1080p. That does skew the 30% overall average, but some of the other gains are still impressive. A couple of notable examples include Apex Legends improving by an average of 26% at 1080p with Ultra settings, while Assassin's Creed Syndicate gets a 13% improvement.
