Intel released a new integrated graphics driver, this batch is compatible with Apollo Lake, 6th, 7th, and 8th generation and Kindom comes with game optimizations.

Intel is introducing a new feature with the ability to automatically configure game settings for Intel® Graphics on 6th Gen Core Processors or higher (including systems with 8th Gen Core Processors with Radeon RX Vega M Graphics). Look for the ‘Gaming icon’ in the Graphics Control Panel. This feature is still in beta so game availability and functionality is limited. We’d love to hear your thoughts on this new beta feature, provide your feedback here.
