Continuing to work on Arc Alchemist series graphics cards, Intel is changing the integrated graphics driver support of all processors from the 6th generation to the 10th generation.
Many models are shelved
As part of the new model, Intel will only provide critical fixes and fixes for security vulnerabilities for processors from the Skylate to Comet Lake family, starting with drivers 31.0.101.3222. This means that the aforementioned processors will no longer receive any day one updates for games.
Intel and MediaTek sign a new collaboration
In addition, Intel graphics drivers will be divided into two as 10th generation and earlier, 11th generation and newer processors and will be offered to users through a single driver.
