I have owned my Arc gpu since mid february 2024 and I experienced a lot of crashes during the first 2 months of me owning the card. One day i decided to play around with the energy bar on the Intel arc control panel and set it to 138 watt instead of 180 watt (180 watt is the default setting). After that point forward i haven't really experienced any more crashes. My main games are gta 5, rocket League and all normal Counter Strike games. Example of crashes i would experience are playing gta 5(online) for around 1-3 minutes then the game crashing or playing cs2 comp and Premier and it crashing during the first 5-10 minutes and then being fine for the rest of the day except for a bunch of stutter, but rather stutter then crashes. But now after limiting the power it is very stable, i only experience like one major stutter of cs2 per day then smooth 200fps+, the stutter is rather long but no crashes. Pc specs are i5 14400f, gigabyte b660 ds3h ax ddr4 with a update to support 13 and 14th gen, be quiet pure rock 2 with good temps, arc a750 acer predator with good temps AT both 180w and 138w, 4x8gb 3200MHz vengeance all ram is in the correct spot and also 16-20-20-38 on all four, i think 750w psu, nvme ssd(boot), sata ssd, sata hdd.
