Intel releases 735 MB driver for 11th to 14th Gen Core graphics
Legacy branch gets WebGL and Photomodeler fixes.
Intel has released Graphics Driver 32.0.101.7088 WHQL for 11th to 14th Gen Core processor graphics. The driver is dated June 22 and targets Iris Xe and UHD Graphics used by Tiger Lake, Rocket Lake, Alder Lake, Raptor Lake and Raptor Lake Refresh platforms. Intel Iris Xe Dedicated Graphics, also known as DG1 , remains part of this package.
This is the same driver branch Intel created after moving 11th to 14th Gen processor graphics and related Intel Atom, Pentium and Celeron graphics to a legacy software support model. In case you missed the news, this split happened last year, when Intel separated older Xe-LP based graphics from the main Arc and Core Ultra driver line . The newer Arc driver now focuses on Arc B-Series, Arc A-Series and Core Ultra processors with Arc Graphics.

According to Intel’s release notes, version 32.0.101.7088 fixes two issues on Core processors with Iris Xe and UHD Graphics. WebGL-based applications may no longer behave incorrectly. Intel also fixed a Photomodeler crash that could occur when rendering offscreen.
Just keep in mind, this is not a game-ready driver, so if you expect game optimizations here, you may be left disappointed. However, if you followed our recent coverage, then you may have heard that Intel is preparing a refresh of Raptor Lake (yet another one). Presumably this driver would also cover this architecture.
32.0.101.7088 WHQL Fixed Issues:
Intel® Core™ Processors with Intel® Iris® Xe and Intel® UHD Graphics:
- WebGL based applications may not behave as expected.
- Photomodeler* may experience a crash when rendering offscreen.
Intel Graphics Software Known Issues:
- When using the settings, preferences, reset all settings option in Windows 10 the application may experience an intermittent crash. Settings can be reset from individual pages without issue.
- Intel® Graphics Software may sometimes experience a single application crash on the first re-arrange of metrics within the select metrics window. Subsequent usage will not be affected by this crash again.
- Performance page in Intel® Graphics Software may not hide the graphs when using the hide graphs button.
- Performance page in Intel® Graphics Software may not function as expected when adding new metrics.
