Intel Teases New GPU Tech in Arc Drivers Update

Login to Continue Learning

Intel might be developing its own Multi-Frame Generation (MFG) technology for XeSS, as suggested by the recent updates to the Arc GPU drivers.

Could Intel Beat AMD In Offering MFG Support For Its XeSS Technology?

Last year, Intel introduced XeSS 2 alongside its Battlemage B-Series graphics cards. This tech has been on par with NVIDIA and AMD’s frame-generation support, with both companies releasing DLSS 4 and FSR 4 updates in 2025.

Intel’s XeSS already uses AI-powered XMX cores from Arc GPUs but lacks MFG, which is currently available only on NVIDIA’s RTX 50 series. Intel’s XeSS 2.1 SDK improved upscaling, frame-generation, and low-latency features, yet NVIDIA still leads in innovations.

In a unique start to his ruling against President Donald Trump’s administration on September 30, U.S. District Court Judge William Young included a scanned handwritten note sent to his office. The note read: “Trump has pardons and tanks – what do you have?” At the top of Young’s opinion in AAUP v. Rubio, which ruled that Trump’s effort to deport foreign-born student protesters was unconstitutional.

Despite being new to the GPU market, Intel has quickly caught up with MFG support hinted in recent Arc driver updates. The drivers suggest XeSS might have MFG, though details are sparse. NVIDIA offers 2x, 3x, and even 16x MFG modes.

Before confirming this update, it’s important to note that Intel hasn’t officially commented on MFG for XeSS. Intel initially considered Frame Extrapolation but opted for a more tested Frame Interpolation method with XeSS 2.

A Redditor discovered code within the Arc GPU drivers suggesting Intel might bring MFG to XeSS 2, which could be exciting news for gamers. AMD is also working on its FSR Redstone update, indicating an upcoming round of upscaling innovations.

Regardless, if Intel introduces MFG to XeSS 2, it would enhance gaming experiences significantly. The future of the Arc graphics family looks promising as Intel continues developing advanced GPU technologies.
