Intel’s Arc Control software will be receiving a significant update next month along with a new Arc GPU driver that is expected to bring big performance enhancements. As reported by numerous sources, the software update will roll out with the new graphics driver & will see a change in how it looks.

Intel Readies Major Arc GPU Driver & Arc Control Software Suite Release For February Release

The Arc Control software from Intel was difficult at best to use primarily because of its overall presentation. Many people found it unmanageable as an overlay and will probably welcome the new change that is expected soon. Linus Sebastian of Linus Tech Tips said this in his recent video:

German tech magazine and website PC Games Hardware showed a section of a story written for its physical magazine, which is not in print until next month. The magazine states that Intel is planning to bring some major performance improvements along with various bug fixes in a major driver that is expected to land next month.

Some reviewers have access to the new information but are under strict embargo about what can be revealed to the public. AdoredTV and Tom’s Hardware reviewer, Albert Thomas, notes that the latest software update is less of a removal or replacement to the overlay but an upgrade that would please both users and those who found it challenging.
