By the way, if someone uses an Intel 4th gen (Haswell) processor to game... and no, I don't mean using it as your CPU paired with a GPU (... I think I'm the only one here still on that kind of setup), but actually gaming using the iGPU on it, well, I have weird news:
Intel Disables DirectX 12 API Loading on Haswell Processors
https://www.techpowerup.com/288676/intel-disables-directx-12-api-loading-on-haswell-processors
Intel's fourth-generation Core processors, codenamed Haswell, are subject to new security exploits. According to the company, a vulnerability exists inside the graphics controller of 4th generation Haswell processors, happening once the DirectX 12 API loading occurs. To fix the problem, Intel has found that disabling this API results in a fix. Starting with Intel graphics driver 15.40.44.5107 applications that run exclusively on DirectX 12 API no longer work with the following Intel Graphics Controllers: Intel Iris Pro Graphics 5200/5100, HD Graphics 5000/4600/4400/4200, and Intel Pentium and Celeron Processors with Intel HD Graphics based on 4th Generation Intel Core.
So yeah, Haswell and DX12 titles are no longer a go... unless you stick to your old driver and don't update any more.
Please excuse my bad English.
