PC owners using Intel integrated graphics can install or update the driver that handles display output and graphics rendering. Intel Graphics Windows DCH Drivers also work with Intel Graphics Command Center, where users can adjust display settings and graphics behavior.
The DCH package updates Intel graphics
The driver lets Windows and applications communicate with Intel graphics hardware for rendering and display output. DCH stands for Declarative, Componentized, Hardware Support Apps: the driver and its companion control features are handled as separate components. That structure applies to Intel integrated graphics, which are built into many Intel processors.
Installing or updating the driver refreshes the software layer used by games, work applications, and Windows itself. The Intel Graphics Command Center provides the settings interface; depending on the setup, it may need to be obtained separately through the Microsoft Store.
Graphics Command Center adjusts connected displays
In Intel Graphics Command Center, users can set a resolution and color profile for each monitor. These controls are useful when displays have different capabilities or when a particular screen needs its own color configuration.
- Choose display resolution and color profile
- Capture screenshots or record the screen
Game profiles change graphics behavior
The Command Center can assign graphics profiles to individual games. A profile lets users adjust performance and visual-quality settings for a specific title, instead of applying the same choices to every game. The driver supplies the graphics support those applications rely on.

- Supports per-monitor resolution and color profiles
- Offers per-game graphics profiles
- Includes screen recording and screenshot tools in Command Center
Cons
- Requires an Intel integrated GPU
System requirements: Windows 10, Windows 11
