Intel Graphics Driver 31.0.101.5186 and 31.0.101.5234 Released (* UPDATED: v5194 / v5252 *)

2024/01/25 JeGX

Intel has published a set of graphics drivers for its Arc GPUs. The driver 101.5186 is the driver for all current Arc GPUs (Arc A380, A580, A770, A750, A310, A770M, A570M, A550M, A530M, A730M, A370M, A350M) and integrated GPUs (11th Gen, 12th Gen and 13th Gen). The driver 101.5234 is the driver for the brand new Core Ultra processors (Meteor Lake) that come with two different GPUs: Arc Graphics and Intel Graphics.

Main changes:
