Intel has warned buyers of Arc series graphics cards of potential problems when using them in older video games. Message about it seen on the PC Mag website. According to the company, players should be prepared to see mediocre performance in such projects.
It is stated that Intel graphics cards will find it difficult to reach high frame rates in some games developed using Microsoft’s legacy DirectX11 and DirectX9 APIs. According to Intel Graphics spokesperson Tom Petersen, it will take time for engineers to achieve perfect optimization of graphics cards with older games.
At the same time, Petersen noted that Arc graphics cards are well optimized for newer technologies such as DirectX12 and Vulcan. In other words, according to him, the Arc A770 model produces a constant 80 frames per second while using DirectX12 in Shadow of the Tomb Raider. However, the performance drops to 40fps when running the same game in DirectX11 version.
