It is a pretty good card as long as you are using a newer cpu, am5 for ryzen or equivalent generation for intel. older chips create an overhead issue with cpu intensive games that can be a pain in the butt, still workable just nowhere near the proper perfrmance. that said it is not a bad card by any stretch and is well priced, even with a 0% discount lol.

FYI: The latest drivers fix a lot of the problems the Arc series had with BF6. Including the previous gen Arc's (i.e. B750), though some people claim use the Intel site supplied drivers, not the Windows update version.

Can confirm, I've had a few issues over my ~6 months with this card and Intel pushes a lot of updates that seem to fix many/most issues I've come across.

My only gripe is how often the control panel software seems to break, though it's a pretty simple fix reinstalling it from the extracted package.

On the whole, I've been very happy for 1080p/1440p gaming, espeically for the price. I'll add that Lossless Scaling even works well for upscaling to 4K, too.

I had that problem and found a couple posts saying that checking the box for a full/clean install during the update fixes it, and it did for me. No problem with the last 3(?) updates since I did the clean install.

Nice! That's awesome. I check that every time, too, and I've had to reinstall it manually maybe 3-4 times that I can remember as it doesn't work. Given the price to performance and that stock settings are mostly fine, not too big of a deal to me.
