What is Intel Stream Assist and How to use it?
Streaming your favorite games online can be a fun and rewarding experience, but it can also take a toll on your PC performance. If your computer is not equipped with a high-end CPU, GPU, and RAM, you may face lagging, stuttering, or crashing issues while playing and streaming at the same time. This can ruin your gaming experience and frustrate your viewers.
Fortunately, there is a solution that can help you stream and game smoothly without compromising on quality. Intel’s Stream Assist is a technology that leverages the integrated graphics on your Intel Core processor to handle the streaming workload, freeing up your dedicated GPU to focus on rendering the game. This way, you can enjoy better graphics and smoother gameplay while streaming, even on lower-spec computers.
In this article, we will explain what Intel Stream Assist is, how it works, and what you need to use it. We will also show you some examples of how Intel Stream Assist can improve your streaming performance and quality. Whether you are a casual streamer or a professional gamer, Intel Stream Assist can help you take your streaming to the next level.
Key Aspects
- With Intel Stream Assist, tasks related to streaming are transferred from your GPU to your integrated GPU. It makes it possible for lower-spec computers to perform better in games while streaming.
- Major streaming apps, like Intel Arc Control, support it, and it makes AI features run faster without putting too much stress on your GPU.
- Intel Stream Assist only works with four streaming apps right now, and you need an Intel 11th Gen CPU or higher and an Intel Arc GPU to run it.
