+- Starting from ARC **Battlemage/B-series** discrete GPUs, Intel has enabled the **xe** kernel driver by default on new GPUs (Xe-2 and newer architectures) to replace the long-standing **i915** kernel driver. Low-power encoding, GuC and HuC firmware are automatically enabled, and users should not refer to settings like `i915.enable_guc=xxx`, which are no longer relevant.
