Intel Graphics has released yet another beta version of the Intel Arc GPU Graphics drivers, version 101.4676 Beta. The new version brings a couple of fixes for Starfield game, with more fixes coming in the future updates. In general, it improves stability of the game as well as fixes some rendering issues.
The latest Intel Arc GPU Graphics driver is still a beta release and hopefully, Intel will eventually launch the full Game On drivers, as there are still plenty of known issues with the game. On the other hand, as reported by Videocardz.com, Bethesda has noted that the Arc A770 GPU does not actually meet minimum requirements for the game, as these still include the Radeon RX 5700 and GeForce GTX 1070 Ti.
FIXED ISSUES:
Intel Arc Graphics Products:
- Starfield (DX12) improved stability in different areas of the game.
- Starfield (DX12) may incorrectly render glass surfaces and objects.
- Starfield (DX12) may exhibit missing eyebrows on characters.

Why do people seemingly post on here regarding new Intel drivers but I have never seen new posts for nVidia or Radeon drivers?
They get posted. It’s just Intel is pumping out driver updates every week or two.
NVidia releases driver updates like once every 3 months unless it’s a weird patch. The most recent was August 22nd,
and that was before I posted regularly so I don’t know if anyone posted that.It looks like it was before my feed included TechPowerUp which seems to be the only place that I have in my RSS feeds that reported it.I posted Amd ones just before the Starfield launch see here.
Also, folks are welcome to post if they find things missing. My only agenda is to give folks a space to share and talk about gaming news on a platform that isn’t reddit. If there’s enough decent content, we can can grow these communities.
