I’m considering building a new machine soon and was looking at the Intel Arc GPUs as a possibility. Anyone have experience using them in their system? I’m on Arch btw

    I have an a770. The only issue that I've had with what little gaming I do, is that CS2 ran pretty terribly, although I tried again last night and it seemed much better.

      Intel have just released a driver update to combat this. Its somethimg to do with a transition layer implemetation that has been massively improved giving 500%+ performance boost.

        500%+ performance boost

        To one game. Most others tested have seen a 5-15% increase in performance, and a couple have had 50% increases.

      Appreciate it. It sounds like with the new announcement they’re putting quite a bit of support behind it so I’m optimistic improvements are made quickly
