      There is a Vulkan DX9 injector that is a godsend for older gaming on ARC, it makes a night and day difference in games like GTA4 or Oblivion. They were playable before but the lows were not great, the injector patches that right up. Look up the channel RandomGamingHD. he did a test of it with his A750. It should also fix visual glitches and funky vsync issues.

    Thank you Sam for lending the A770 to Phil for a video, here in Australia for $699 the A770 matches 3060 & 6700XT so comparable to nVIDIA for performance but behind AMD,
    it does seem currently depending on the game the Intel GPUs are Hit or Miss, they either work really well or it is just a nightmare especially with older DX versions, so it will be interesting to follow how Drivers advance.

    Who is this guy and how is it that he has your voice? Some clever video editing or special effects at play, very well done! :)

    they really need to optimize the DX9 API, games with dx9 run significantly better on Intel Arch GPUs when they are run on Vulkan using DXVK.

    I'm gonna have to update my head canon after this video.
    It's weird. This card had fairly disappointing performance on older API games in other people's tests. And no one benchmarked Crysis on it. I've yet to see it running anything OpenGL.
