It has been 15 days since I started the challenge of using the new Intel Arc A770 graphics card (or really an Arc card in general), so I thought it would be past due for giving an update on how the card has been doing in my system, what I've tested with it, and some of the things that I don't like about the Arc experience (and of course some of the things I do like). This is not the all-encompassing update video to end the challenge, it very much is in progress, and I am still using the A770 as my daily driver graphics card. As more time goes on, I plan to get a little more experimental and try older APIs, emulators, my video editor (DaVinci Resolve 18 as of the time of filming), and of course try out the DXVK feature where applicable, like games that utilize Direct X 9. Though the usefulness of that mod might be waning due to the latest 101.3959 driver version that allows a massive performance boost in older games likely due to the baked-in assistance of the DXVK translation layer, given Microsoft's translation layer from DX9 to DX12 has a very noticeable performance overhead.
Stay tuned as there will eventually be at least a Part 2 and a Part 3 to this series if my time allows.
