It remains unclear if there is a direct link or not, but an information clearly indicates that Intel decided to improve current situation and to improve the rather disappointed performance levels of the integrated graphical cores and their associated drivers.

So, one can imagine that it would be possible to apply the same driver for the mobile CPU Arrendale. This driver will ensure the minimal level of expected performance: hardware video encoding/decoding, as well as associ
