Intel has now released a new version of its graphics driver for Windows 10. The new version number is 27.20.100.9079, the update brings a number of improvements, but also contains known problems.

After the initial update for graphics drivers for the Windows 10 October 2020 update, Intel has now released another important update. The update is available for all Windows 10 versions from 1709 and newer and can be obtained immediately. The new Windows 10 DCH drivers have the version number 27.20.100.9079. Intel Core processors from the eleventh to the sixth generation are supported. You can now get the new driver from us in the download area. We also offer the Intel driver update software for download (more on this at the end of the article).

The driver is getting some important bug fixes, especially for games:

But there are also some known problems, such as intermittent crashes or hangups, which have been observed in connection with Cyberpunk 2077, Hunt: Showdown, Dark Souls III, and Horizon Zero Dawn, among others. There are also these problems with Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, Halo 3: ODST, and Total War Warhammer 2. There are also general display problems with a resolution of 1366×768 pixels with Intel Core processors with Intel UHD graphics.
