Intel has rolled out a new version of its High Definition Graphics driver, namely the 30.0.101.1069 DCH update, which adds support for 12th Generation Core Processors, Codename Alder Lake.

In addition to that, the current release improves game loading times for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Deathloop, Horizon Zero Dawn, Metro Exodus on 6th Generation CPUs and higher, and fixes the intermittent crash/hang seen in Moonlight Blade, Resident Evil Village on 11th-gen CPUs with Iris Xe graphics.

Moreover, the 101.1069 update also resolves crash/hang events seen in Call of duty: Warzone (on 12th-gen CPUs) and Doom Eternal (on Iris Xe Discrete graphics), as well as the minor graphic anomalies spotted in Fallout 4, Red Dead Redemption, and Resident Evil Village.

However, bear in mind that this new version might still encounter some issues with games such as Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, Far Cry 6, The Sims 4, Metro Exodus, Red Dead Redemption 2, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint, and other titles as highlighted in the Release Notes below.

In terms of compatibility, Intel’s update is only suitable for DCH configurations running Microsoft’s 64-bit architecture of Windows 10 or 11 operating systems, and including a supported CPU model.

When it comes to installation, first make sure your system is valid for this new driver, save and run the downloadable executable, and follow all instructions displayed on-screen for a complete and successful upgrade.

In addition to that, once finished, it would be a good idea to perform a system reboot to allow the changes to take effect. If this task isn’t requested, however, make sure to carry it out manually.

That said, download Intel Graphics Driver 30.0.101.1069 DCH, apply it, and constantly check our website to be the first to know when a newer and stable version is available for your device.
