Arc Power
Arc Power is a free Windows utility for tuning, monitoring and configuring graphics settings on Intel Arc GPUs.
What Arc Power is
Arc Power is a free Windows utility for tuning, monitoring and configuring graphics settings on Intel Arc GPUs. Its driver-backed controls cover supported clocks, power, temperature and fan behavior, within the limits reported by the device and driver. The overlay can show clocks, temperatures, power, utilization, VRAM, FPS, 1% Low / 99% FPS and frame time. Users can save named tuning profiles and set one to apply when the app starts. Graphics options include XeSS Frame Generation, frame synchronization, frame limits, low latency and supported display settings. Alchemist GPUs support a negative voltage offset capped at -200 mV. Reversible Windows graphics options are available in the Tweaks section. Arc A3/A5/A7 and B580/B570 are listed as verified working; Arc Pro B50 and Arc integrated graphics are limited to tweaks and telemetry. AMD and NVIDIA adapters may appear for telemetry when vendor libraries are available, but Arc tuning requires an Intel Arc GPU. The stated system requirement is 64-bit Windows 10 or 11 with an Intel graphics driver for Arc features; installer and portable downloads are offered.
Good
- Free utility with installer and portable downloads.
- Named tuning profiles can apply at startup.
- Overlay includes FPS and frame-time readings.
- Reversible Windows graphics tweaks.
- Device limits and driver read-back guide changes.
Watch out
- Requires 64-bit Windows 10 or 11.
- Arc tuning requires an Intel Arc GPU.
- Some listed GPUs offer tweaks and telemetry only.
- Arc features require an Intel graphics driver.
Who it suits
It suits Windows users with compatible Intel Arc GPUs who want driver-backed tuning, performance monitoring and graphics settings. Users of other GPU brands may see telemetry, but cannot use Arc tuning.
Verdict
Arc Power brings tuning controls, monitoring and graphics options together for supported Intel Arc GPUs. Check the verified GPU list and Windows requirements, especially if you need tuning rather than telemetry alone.
