Intel has revamped (opens in new tab) how it will deliver graphics driver updates to modern and legacy processors. The chipmaker has decided to move its 6th to 10th Generation processors to a legacy support model. Under the new model, Intel will only provide critical fixes and security vulnerabilities for processors from the Skylake to…
AMD has released the Adrenalin Edition 22.7.1 software (opens in new tab) for Radeon graphics card owners. The new driver comes with the chipmaker’s much-anticipated AMD Noise Suppression technology and OpenGL optimizations. AMD Noise Suppression is a new feature that reduces background noise from your environment when you’re on a call with someone or gaming…
A single line of code – that’s all it took for a massive increase in ray tracing performance on Intel’s Arc Alchemist GPUs, thanks to Intel graphics driver engineer Lionel Landwerlin. With Intel’s new graphics cards floundering somewhat with performance woes and driver teething issues, it’s a welcome sight. Landwerlin describes the change as “like…
Intel has admitted a graphics driver bug that can cause severe lagging of Chromium-based web browsers on some of the systems that use the company’s 12th Generation Core Alder Lake processors with UHD Graphics 770 integrated GPU. The blue giant recommends updating software, changing settings, or switching to an SSD to resolve the issue. “Recent Intel…

AMD has launched a new Adrenalin Edition version 22.6.1 driver for Windows 7 that fixes a problem where users couldn’t install driver software for powerful modern RDNA 2 GPU-based products “such as the Radeon RX 6900 XT.” Unlike contemporary AMD drivers, this legacy release also supports Radeon GPUs going back to the HD 6000 series…
The Raspberry Pi community has a rich history of integrating the classic SBC into a plethora of robotic projects and this new RP2040 motor driver board developed by maker Taylor Alexander is paving the way for even more awe-inspiring Pi-powered robots. The board was unveiled earlier this week over at Twitter with an up-close look…
Owners of Intel Arc A730M, A370M, and A350M graphics chips — anyone? — now have an actual driver (opens in new tab) that supports the fledgling GPUs. Limited to mobile chips (opens in new tab) for now, laptops featuring Intel’s latest foray into graphics processing are starting to appear (desktop models have yet to breathe…
AMD has released a new Adrenalin driver to the public, version 22.5.2, featuring AMD’s DX11 optimizations found previously in its May 2022 preview driver. This will give Radeon gamers access to the performance improvement found in some DX11 titles, without diverting to AMD’s preview driver. Other improvements added to the driver include a new Radeon…
AMD’s new Software Preview Driver for May 2022, has brought about some astonishing performance gains for several DX11 titles, with some titles gaining a 30% boost in minimum fps. However, such gains may not be very common, based on the results of a 50-game benchmark suite tested by Techspot. AMD’s miracle-working driver helped in a…
