Intel Arc graphics DCH driver shows upcoming desktop graphics cards

Intel has recently released a Beta DCH driver for its existing Arc Alchemist GPUs. However, after analysing the code, users found references to unannounced graphics cards, including what seems to be the Arc desktop line-up and workstation GPUs for laptops and desktops.

A screenshot showing the list of cards supporting the new driver was shared by @momomo_us. At the moment, only the 12th Gen Core iGPUs and the Arc A350M and A370M support the driver, but once new GPUs become available, they should as well.

Besides the Arc Alchemist mobile GPUs that Intel had already announced, the driver's code also included what seems to be the upcoming desktop GPUs, namely the A770, A750, A580, A380 and A310. Moreover, multiple workstation GPUs are referenced within the code, including the A30M for laptops and the Arc Pro A40 and A50 for desktops.

Reading the changelog, the driver aims to optimise performance in Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt, Evil Dead: The Game, and Dolmen on Arc A350M and A370M GPUs.

KitGuru says: Recent rumours and leaks had already revealed most of these desktop GPUs, but the new driver datamine essentially confirms them. We should hear more about Intel's upcoming desktop graphics cards soon.
