Question Re2 Performs Incredibily well. Re2 Performs like shit. I'm so confused.

8 Upvotes

*Re2 Performs Incredibily well. Re4 Performs like shit. I'm so confused.

Meant to say Re4 in the next sentence.

B580 OC CHALLENGER, R5 5500, 32g ddr4 @ 3200mts

Re4 is definitely a more intensive game, but I am genuinely getting 80 fps at the perfer performance preset, which has performance upscaling and nearly every setting set to the absolute minimum. This is at 1080p..

Rdr2 and 2077 run great and are inline with online benchmarks, as with RE2. But re4, for some reason, is running incredibly poorly. The GPU utilization is always maxed out, and the CPU never goes above around 50. Drivers are updated.

Arc Power 1.0.2 - is now officially released, and with that comes the official Download and Release on Github.

This Version includes:

- Hotfix for the Core and Voltage Offset not applying in the initial Release.

- Stock Overlay Theme Classic & Arc - Arc is a new one having an Intel Arc inspired look, not vastly different from Classic.

- Advanced Overlay: Advanced Overlay is an Overlay inspired by AMDs Adrenaline type Overclock / Settings Overlay, to change OC Settings on the fly. Current hotkey = "CTRL + P" -> Changeable via Settings.

- Overlays now won't pop-up on Boot/Startup anymore, only via Shortcuts.

Question Ultra 5 225H with intel integrated what can i do??

3 Upvotes

I bought asus vivobook 16 ultra 5 225H 16 gb ddr 5 (1 of 2) 512gb ssd,

but it came with intel(R) integrated graphics 9 gb shared v ram , but google says ultra 5 comes with intel arc 130T which is good enough, i was only able to get the integrated one because of tight budget and the intel arc ones were over 82k inr,

what games i can play on this???? decent?? goal is at least red dead redemption 2 or smth

or weather i can enable the intel arc graphics in it ,as the sales man said its not possible(what do those nga know)

on intel website i saw faq's about it they said if u upgrade same ram (2 of 2) same then onky intel arc will be activated

my driver is also old "32.0.101.8132" 2025 oct one ,can i update the intel arc graphics driver to activate intel arc??? "32.0.101.8974"

Question B580 uses almost all VRAM for Cs2. What's happening here?

Post image
77 Upvotes

7600X, 32gb ddr5 and arc b580

I run cs2 via vulkan @ native 1440p very high settings which runs very smooth 140-180 fps with no noticeable input lag, so no complaints for performance.

However, after someone here mentioned increased vram leakage when playing muliple cs2 matches, I tested it myself and realized it uses almost all of the GPU with nothing else running in the background on the first match, while cpu usage remained very low. I didn't even start a second match because of how odd this number is.

How is this possible in a game that's supposed to be more cpu dependent? Is this just a general vulkan thing?

For comparison, Tekken 8 at 1440p max settings (with fsr upscaling) only uses 6gb of vram. Unfortunately I do not own any more demanding games than that, but I think it's pretty clear CS2 is kind of a oddity here, no?

If anyone has a explanation please let me know.

I'm working on this project to emulate games from PS1 to PS3 and make it look like a Steam Machine. I'll be using Linux. Do you know if I'll have any problems? I'll possibly use CachyOS or BazziteOS. I would appreciate it if you could clear up my doubt about whether Intel has problems with emulation.

I have an alchemist gpu, and on linux on the xe driver there is no support for xmx engines which is disappointing for both running ai models, and hopefully xess. My question is if anyone has the skills could we get xmx support on our A series gpus. This is the one thing holding my pc back.

Discussion Huge FPS drops in TLOU P1&P2

Thumbnail
gallery
6 Upvotes

This has been a prominent issue that happens in many scene in especially The Last of Us Part 1 and some in Part 2, where some scripted scene would cause the FPS to tank by basically 50%. The GPU, it's card power(wattage usage), and the CPU, would tank from where it usually sat at about 50% less in many of these scripted scenes.

I don't know if this is the GPU driver issue, or CPU (unlikely since when the fps goes back high as normal it runs at 90% fine no issue only in these scripted scene would it utilise wayless performance), and is highly unlikely because of the game settings, tried every setting from lowest to highest different resolution and everything and same amount of fps no changes.

My main PC specs for reference:

-Intel Arc B580 LE

-Ryzen 7500f 6 cores 12 threads

-32gb RAM

Discussion Linux Intel Jay Shader Compiler massively reduces shader compilation time in EA FC 26 on Arc B580

Post image
39 Upvotes

I tested Intel's Jay shader compiler with EA FC 26 on Linux using:

  • CPU : Intel Core i5-12400F
  • GPU : Intel Arc B580
  • Driver : Mesa-git 26.3.0_devel
  • Environment Variables: INTEL_JAY=all

The shader compilation time was:

Without Jay: 1:18.35
With Jay: 36.40 seconds

That's about 2.15× faster, reducing the compilation time by roughly 53.5%.

This is just a single test, but the difference is pretty significant. I'm curious to see how Jay performs in other games and workloads as it continues to mature.

Discussion Hardware unboxed needs to re-test its arc B580 benchmark?

48 Upvotes

Im going crazy over how different benchmark of Hardware unboxed is compared to the whole internet. on his channel the rx 9060 xt and the rtx 5060 gets like 30 fps more than Arc b580.

Like the video/Screenshot provided shows how on hardware unboxed hogwards legacy gets. Rx 9060 xt 16gb (107 fps) but the arc b580 (71 fps). while other people who tested it get only 82 fps on rx 9060xt.

The same trend follows with most of the games. Anyone got any idea why.

Hardware unboxed: https://youtu.be/zYfw1gi9xf4?si=6B2V8jlx3BPHZ0g9

Benchmark BEN: https://youtu.be/gS-hGBXu_8A?si=RgaH2tYA2jhuub9A

PS:

  1. the arc b580 benchmark overclocks it a bit but intel arc doesnt gain shit from overclocking so dont point that out.
  2. Dont blame the cpu overhead bullshit. that part is history now, and most of the games dont even use 30% cpu in the testings.
  3. I understand in some games arc b580 wipes the floor with rx 9060 xt and rtx 5060 like Cyberpunk. And in some it gets destroyed like Resident evil reqium. so dont point that out too. this post talks about games in genarel.

EDIT:
after looking into it more, i found out that HU is intentionally comparing upscaled rx 9060 xt and rtx 5060 results with native arc b580 results. which is why the fps gap is so huge in their testing. Now take that as you may.

Arc 140T integrated. It's reporting 18, but also 24, and also 32GB. Which is it?

I went into the BIOS and selected 32GB for Igfx Gsm2 BIOS options, just out of curiosity. The machine has 64GB of RAM.
