Intel has just announced the availability of its Iris and HD Graphics driver version 10.18.14.4156, which resolves various corruptions with certain games, fixes crash event, and corrects screen flickering and other artifacts.

This release is specifically designed for adding compatibility with Intel’s 5th Generation Core CPUs with HD Graphics 5500, HD Graphics 6000, and Iris Graphics 6100, but also includes several improvements that your system can make use of.

To detail Intel’s update, when running Windows 8.1, Dead Rising 3 will not encounter a system hang, Halo 2 screen flickering won’t be observer anymore, and no display corruptions will be visible while playing Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris.

In addition to that, build 4156 also resolves some display corruptions for games such as Resident Evil 6 Biohazard (character hair details), Ryse: Son of Rome (character texture details), and Worms: Revolution (when playing with CMAA setting enabled).

When it comes to applications, no crashes will be encountered when running SPECviewperf 12 benchmark or CineBench Cinema 4D apps, JUCE Demo program won’t show any corruptions, and the brightness level will now change after exiting monitor off state.

Moreover, the present update improves overall system performance by up to 10% as measured on 3D Mark 11 benchmark, and includes several other fixes and enhancements (detailed in the Release Notes).

As for compatibility, Intel’s new driver is to be applied on computers powered by one of Microsoft’s Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 operating systems (either bit variants), and which include a supported 4th- or 5th-gen Core CPU, or an Intel Core M processor with HD Graphics.
