Intel's APO and Game Support: What You Need to Know


 



Let's delve into Intel's recent expansion of game support for its Application Optimization (APO) technology. 🎮


- What is APO?

  - Intel's Application Optimization (APO) utility is designed to enhance gaming performance on Intel's hybrid CPUs.

  - APO adjusts thread affinities dynamically, ensuring game processing threads run optimally on specific cores.

  - It can significantly boost performance, especially in titles like Rainbow Six Siege.


- New Game Additions:

  - Intel has expanded APO's game list from two to fourteen titles.

  - The twelve new games include F1 22, Guardians of the Galaxy, Strange Brigade, World War Z, Dirt 5, World of Warcraft, Final Fantasy XIV, Red Dead Redemption 2, World of Tanks, Dreams Three Kingdoms 2, Serious Sam 4, and Watch Dogs Legion.

  - These additions complement the existing games (Metro Exodus and Rainbow Six Siege) supported by APO.


- Compatibility and Older CPUs:

  - APO currently supports Intel's latest 14th Gen Core i7 and Core i9 Raptor Lake Refresh desktop CPUs, as well as select mobile CPUs (14700HX, 14900HX).

  - However, an advanced mode unlocks functionality for 12th and 13th Gen CPUs and the rest of Intel's 14th-Gen hybrid lineup, even with unsupported games.

  - Older processors can benefit from APO with some configuration.


Intel's commitment to expanding game support through APO is a positive step, and we hope to see more titles added in the future! 🚀👍
