Intel ARC graphics cards, during or after launch Resizable BAR BAR (REBAR) seems to have support. ReBAR technologycan improve the frame rate performance of games that support the feature. This list of games is pretty short right now, but it would be nice to see ReBAR support in Intel’s upcoming ARC graphics cards.
A report by Phoronix states that Intel developers Linux driver support He explains that he is working on it. According to the notes of the latest kernel patches, ReBAR support is also on the way with Linux support. This might speed up the gaming experience on the Linux side, but will users want to switch from Windows to Linux?

Intel ARC will let you play on Linux
For those who do not know ReBAR technology Let’s explain a little. The ReBAR feature is a PCI Express technology that can increase the framerate performance of certain games by allowing the CPU to access its entire buffer. That is, it allows the computer to communicate with large chunks of data on the CPU and GPU.
Unlike some other methods of increasing framerate performance, ReBAR is only supported by a small collection of games for now. Red Dead Redemption 2 Some of the best video games such as Windows support this feature, but it’s not as common as its alternatives.
Intel’s ARC Linux patch his notes forIntel Alchemist (or DG2) we will have resizable BAR support for the device’s local memory, but in some cases the final BAR size may still be smaller than the total local memory size.” he explains. In such cases, only some of the local memory will be accessible to the CPU, while the rest will be accessed via the GPU.
NVIDIA’s RTX 30 series Let’s remind you that graphics cards have ReBar support, and AMD has a similar technology called Smart Access Memory.
