Intel has released a new update for DCH graphics drivers, WiFi and Bluetooth drivers for Windows 10 operating system. The new drivers are available for both consumers and enterprises in 64-bit and 32-bit versions.

Intel is updating its DCH graphics drivers to version 26.20.100.7985 with several fixes and improvements. The company has also bundled new audio drivers for computers with 6th, 7th-, 8th-, 9th, and 10th-generation processors in the DCH graphics package.

According to Intel, the update comes with bug fixes for DirectX 12 in Fortnite and it also adds support for new games such as Bleeding Edge. For non-gamers, Intel says it has resolved a bug where images are not in sync with sound when playing an HDR video via Windows 10’s Movies & TV app.

Another Movies & TV app bug where Windows 10 renders a black screen when playing a video in full-screen mode has been fixed.

As for new features, things haven’t changed and you’ll not find any exciting changes after updating the DCH driver.

The update is compatible with PCs with 6th generation or newer processors, Pentium, Celeron processors with HD Graphics 510, 505, 500 and UHD Graphics 605 and 600.

It is worth noting that this is a DCH driver and you are recommended to install it on a PC with Windows 10 May 2019 Update or newer.
