Note : In order to know which drivers package to use, match the audio specifications of your motherboard with the apps or ask me.

TIPS :

If you want to manage the drivers (remove old/unused drivers for example) that you have in your Windows DriverStore
Use Driver Store Explorer (Right click on "Rapr.exe" > Run as administrator).

If you want better interrupts delivery latency
Enable MSI (Message Signaled-based Interrupts) mode on all your supported devices (see the column "supported modes") with
MSI Mode Utility (Right click on "MSI_Mode_Utility_v3.exe" > Run as administrator).

If you experience crackling, popping, audio stutter
Disable hibernation (Fast Startup included).

[MoKiChU]

Hi,

I remind you that my field is the motherboards (DIY PC) and that all my threads are AIMed for ASUS motherboards only (hence the fact that my threads are in Downloads for Motherboards category) and not AIMed for ASUS notebooks/laptops/AiO.

Hello MoKiChU!!
I would like to know if it is possible to add the Dolby Digital Live option to the drive for digital output? I use a home theater connected to the PC via optical cable and I can only use it with a stereo signal.

Hello

Please update the sound driver for the ROG Strix X570-E Gaming. I'm currently using the latest sound driver for the ROG Strix X570-E Gaming on Windows 11 Home, but Adobe Media Encoder is unable to utilize Realtek's native audio driver. Additionally, the native ASIO driver has too many bugs. Thank you!

[adrian_13371]

Is there any way i can download the Drivers : 6.0.9791.1 WHQL version, the last two completly versions sound way worse, like there is no bass, im have dts custom motherboard

[Yarda]

Did you check the DTS app?

[adrian_13371]

i always have that disabled since it sounds too artificial for my liking

[Yarda]

But the Equalizer is there too, you can use that without using the presets.
