Does Arc control "Opt into Driver boost" setting benefit Iris Xe Graphics?

[Xillvion]

Two days ago, I found out that I can install the Arc drivers on Iris Xe, which I had no problems after doing so.

This setting in Arc control called "Opt into Driver boost" is supposed to improve game performance/stability. So i'm wondering if Iris Xe Graphics have the same benefits as Arc GPUs do.

Hello Xillvion,

Thank you for posting on the Intel communities.  

To provide you with accurate information I will need more time to check if the setting in Intel® Arc™ Control called "Opt into Driver boost" has the same benefits as Intel® Arc™ Graphics for Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics.

31.0.101.3802, but i'm updating to 31.0.101.3959, only to see if the problems from the beta version still exist.

Hello Xillvion,  

Thank you for your response. 

Now that you provided me with that information, I will be able to continue with the investigation to check if Iris Xe Graphics has the same benefits as Arc GPUs do when "Opt into Driver boost" is enabled.

Hello Xillvion,

As per my investigation, enabling "Opt into Driver Boost" will update the drivers with the latest optimizations for games/apps and it will improve the performance/stability. This applies to Intel® Integrated Graphics and Intel® Arc™ Graphics.
