If so, what are your computer specs? and how well or bad it runs?

I didn't know you even could run dxvk on windows, what's the reason for doing that?

Sounds like the have an Intel Arc GPU. It has little to no hardware support for dx9, but very good support for Vulcan.

Are people really using the Arc? Had thought it was a developer preview rather than an actual consumer product

A decent amount of people use arc now because it's good value. I'm on Iris Xe integrated graphics which is basically baby Arc. I don't know if it has all of Arc's quirks or just some.

Even on my old graphics card, which did have dx9 support, it helped. Now older titles might have better performance on new drivers.
