Intel Unveils XeSS 2 with Frame Generation and Low Latency Features

The next-gen AI-powered upscaling technology promises up to 3.9x performance boosts and enhanced responsiveness in supported games.

Intel XeSS 2 introduces three core features: AI-driven Frame Generation, Super Resolution upscaling, and XeLL (Xe Low Latency) for reduced system lag.
The technology aims to rival NVIDIA's DLSS 3 and AMD's FSR 3, using AI-powered interpolation to generate additional frames and improve gaming performance.
Initial game support includes titles like Assassin's Creed: Shadows, Dying Light 2, and F1 24, with more expected as XeSS 2 adoption grows.
XeSS 2 is compatible with GPUs featuring Intel's XMX AI accelerators, including the new Arc B580 GPU, which launches on December 13, 2024.
Intel claims up to 3.9x performance boosts in games like F1 24 at 1440p Ultra settings, with XeLL improving system responsiveness by up to 45%.
