Question to developers on Intel ARC GPU?

[DmitriKozlowsky]

Has ED and its 3rd party have tested and benchmarked DCS with Intel ARC GPU?

1. Is it compatible?

2. Is Intel ARC effective platform for DCS?

3. Baseline 100FPS system with Intel CPU and Intel ARC to run DCS at 1440P with High settings at 100FPS? Module would be DCS: KA-50BS2

4. Relative performance to same system with RTX 3060Ti FE.

The A770 16GB is looking really good at a much nicer cost than the price gouging AMD/Nvidia offerings. 

It will run anything you throw at it...how well, is another thing. There may not be much gain at all between a 3080 and 4080 for DCS, as things stand.

Wait for reviews, make your own mind up. 

 

 

p.s I'm not a dev, I just watch the info and judge for myself.

Arc support for DX11 games.  May take a bit.

DX12 and Vulcan should be better.

Intel recommends more recent CPUs for use with this GPU.

Perhaps this will hopefully change in time.

Low end/low spec gamers like me need some decent cards as well.

Recent driver update that Intel says addresses DCS stuttering specifically.   I don't have one so can't provide any actual data, but maybe someone else has more recent info.  The incoming Battlemage GPUs look promising at half the cost of RTX cards.
