Intel Arc Pro 32.0.101.8515 WHQL driver goes live
Intel has posted its Q1.26 workstation graphics driver, version 32.0.101.8515 WHQ L, and the main update is official support for the new Intel Arc Pro B70 and B65 discrete GPUs . The same release also adds support for built-in Arc Pro B390 and B370 graphics in select Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors.
For Arc Pro B70, this update is not just a device enablement drop. Intel lists a dedicated certification block for the card, including Ansys Mechanical 2025 R2 and 2026 R1, a long list of Ansys 2027 R1 applications, Nemetschek Vectorworks 2024 through 2026, and PTC Creo 11 and 12. Intel also says more ISV certifications are still in progress, so the supported software list will likely expand further.
Intel also claims higher SPECviewperf 15 scores at 1080p for Arc Pro B-series products compared with its Q4 2025 software. The release notes list gains of up to 5% in creo-04, 4% in enscape-01, 7% in snx-05, and 32% in solidworks-08. These numbers are published for the B-series family as a whole, so Intel is not breaking out Arc Pro B70 results separately in this document.

Based on Intel’s earlier Arc Pro rollouts, the regular Arc non-Pro driver should also end up supporting these cards. That part is still an expectation, not something confirmed in this workstation PDF. For now, the only confirmed package is the Q1.26 Pro branch, and it puts Arc Pro B70 into Intel’s certified quarterly driver track on day one.
Highlights of this workstation driver:
- Support for new built-in Intel Arc Pro B390 and Intel Arc Pro B370 GPUs in select Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors.
- Support for new Intel Arc Pro B70 and Intel Arc Pro B65 discrete GPUs.
- Built-in Intel Arc Pro GPUs in select Intel Core Ultra processors, Series 3, 2, and 1, now support increased variable graphics memory allocation in Microsoft Windows 10 and Windows 11 host systems. For example, a 64 GB host system can have up to 93%, or 59.5 GB, of working memory dynamically allocated to the built-in Intel Arc Pro GPU.
- Performance improvements on Intel Arc Pro graphics products versus the Intel Q4 2025 software driver in the SPECviewperf 15 benchmark at 1080p, including average score increases in:
- creo-04:
- Up to 5% on Intel Arc Pro B-series GPUs
- enscape-01:
- Up to 4% on Intel Arc Pro B-series GPUs
- snx-05:
- Up to 7% on Intel Arc Pro B-series GPUs
- Up to 8% on Intel Arc Pro A-series GPUs
- solidworks-08:
- Up to 32% on Intel Arc Pro B-series GPUs
