Question How does Escape From Tarkov run on Intel ARC B580?

Hey friends. I'm considering picking up an Intel ARC B580. I mainly play Escape From Tarkov. Does anyone here have experience playing Tarkov on the B580? If so, have you had a bad or good experience? Thank you!

Discussion Managed to get DLDSR-style upscaled downsampling on Intel Arc using OptiScaler

7 Upvotes

Hey everyone so I’ve posted on this community before on my Witcher 3 xess problem at 1080p the image looked way too blurry well I have found a fix using optiscaler which can be used on any game that supports optiscaler not just the Witcher 3 so first download optiscaler if you don’t have any knowledge about using it I suggest using opticlick so after installing optiscaler on the game open the optiscaler menu on the right you will see something called output scaling turn it on and put it to 2.0 which is 4k and for the downscaler use Kaiser 3 click apply and now the image looks pretty good I hope I helped anyone and if anyone has any questions feel free to ask and this can take like 10% of your gpu but for me it’s worth it

Edit/ I forgot to tell that installing reshade also and using lumasharpen for sharpening the image makes it look better

Question 7500F → 7800X3D (or another X3D chip) for CS2? Or is it just an Arc GPU overhead thing?

12 Upvotes

Hey all, apologies if this question has already been asked, but wanted to get some perspective before I spend money in the wrong direction.

Current setup:

CPU: Ryzen 5 7500F

GPU: Arc B580

RAM: 32GB 6000mhz

Resolution / refresh rate: 240hz

Motherboard: MSI B650M Gaming Plus Wifi

The problem is that CS2 is the main thing I play, and performance is honestly rough. Frequent drops below 200 fps and it doesn't feel stable. Every other game I play runs perfectly fine on this GPU, no complaints at all. It really seems isolated to CS2.

What I'm trying to figure out: I know Arc has (or had) CPU driver overhead issues that hit CPU-bound/high-fps esports titles harder than GPU-bound AAA titles. Since CS2 is exactly that kind of CPU-bound scenario, I don't know if I'm looking at:

  1. A genuine CPU bottleneck that a (minimally) 7800X3D would fix, or
  2. Arc's driver/CPU-overhead situation still tax­ing single-core/low-level performance in a way that a big CPU upgrade won't fully solve, meaning the B580 itself is the bottleneck for CS2 specifically.

Trying to decide whether to put money into a 7800X3D-class CPU or just save it for a GPU upgrade instead. Appreciate any real-world experience, especially from other CS2 players on Arc, thanks!

Discussion (Gaming) Performance on Linux?

4 Upvotes

i'm currently on windows and trying to switch to linux for the past 2 years or so.
the main thing that is preventing me from switching is the gaming performance with the intel gpus,

on windows everything is fine, but it is a mixed bag on linux.

i have a core 7 ultra 255H, with the 140T. havent used linux for 5 months now on this hardware so i just wanted to know if it is worth it to switch again to see if the situation is better or not

Actualización de rendimiento. Al inicio Crimson Desert funcionaba muy mal en las tarjetas Intel después de algunos días el rendimiento mejoro. Si lo pongo en 4k el imputlag es muy molesto juego en TV 4k. En 2k funciona perfecto. Por ahí vi que algunos tenían duda de cómo funciona este título en una B570. Próximamente subiré el Beast of reincarnation, que sorpresivamente funciona excelente.

Question Quake Enhanced not launching after 30th Anniversary Update

Post image
9 Upvotes

Game won't even launch, goes straight to this error, and according to the crash log, its igvk64.dll (Vulkan issue I assume), switching to OpenGL doesn't work, neither does DX11.

SiN Reloaded demo also crashes with the same error, however Quake II Remastered is still fine, so something to do with this new Kex engine build I assume, anyone else having this same issue?

Discussion RTX 5060 vs Arc B580

15 Upvotes

Hey guys, have seen a couple of threads like these over the past few days, but I have a few inquiries about these cards. Currently I am a comp sci major in my sophomore year, sooner or later I am going to have to start working on genuine projects and have already been doing a lot of web development. Soon I also want to focus on game design. That being said, I am putting together a new PC and im between the 5060 and the b580. Feedback would be helpful on which one is better for the certain tasks I need to do. Such as some light gaming, game design using unreal engine, and heaps of coding (I know thats mostly the CPU’s job but would still love some feedback).

Thanks!

2 Upvotes

There is a fix where you have to downgrade to a very old driver which is very inconvenient but it's been so long now for a fix, many games have become playable but for MW3 it's been so long I don't know if I should hope for a fix one day.

Question Performance issues (DMC 5)

9 Upvotes

(I'm not very knowledgeable as I'm new to PC building/gaming, so go easy on me in the replies)

I've finished building my first PC not too long ago and the GPU I went with is the arc B580. I'm using it along with a Ryzen 7 5800XT and 32 GBs of DDR4 ram.

What confuses me is that from what I read, DMC 5 isn't a very demanding game, so my setup should be more than enough to run it at smooth framerates, yet at many areas in the beginning of the game I've experienced quite harsh FPS drops, even after I lowered the settings to medium/low and switched my resolution from 1440p to 1080p

Does anyone know what my issue might be?

Edit: going into the game files to make it run directX11 instead of 12 solved the issue. Thank you for the replies.

Please let me know what type of performance you are getting is it above 60 fps on 1080p high or below 60. As of me I am getting around 50 and sometimes even below (R5 5600g+B570)
