Intel Graphics Software for Arc GPUs updated with easy-to-use overclocking controls

With Intel announcing its first Battlemage GPU, the new Intel Arc B580 and B570, the company has also announced that it's updating its software tools and support with the latest Intel Graphics Software. With expanded display settings tools and more control over things like FPS limiters and latency reduction, a robust suite of overclocking controls is even introduced.

Yes, this means the Intel Arc B580, with its 12GB of VRAM, 2670 MHz Graphics Clock, and base 190W power draw, can all be tweaked to boost performance. The new Intel Graphics Software will replace the existing Arc Control software on the PC. It will be the all-in-one tool for GPU and PC game customization, performance monitoring and tuning, and driver releases going forward.

When it comes to overclocking, during a preview of the new software, we were shown how in-depth and easy to use it is - with control over GPU tuning, voltage limits, VRAM memory speed overclocking, fan curve, and thermal tuning.
