OS requirements : Windows 10 64 bit or more recent.
Hardware requirements (AMD) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME/ProArt motherboards with AMD 3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx/8xx series chipsets (except ROG with ALC40xx).
Hardware requirements (Intel) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME/ProArt motherboards with Intel 2xx/3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx/7xx/8xx series chipsets (except ROG with ALC40xx).

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).

Hi,

- Minimal (such as Microsoft built-in drivers) : Follow scrupulously your CLEANUP process > Right click on "AUDIO_Realtek_UAD_ASUS_ROG-PRIME-TUF_MB_v6.0.xxxx.x\Realtek\Codec_xxxx.x\HDXASUS.inf" > Install > Wait for the message "The operation completed successfully" or for restart request.

- Realtek Only (like ASUS ROG/PRIME/TUF RTK motherboards but the equalizer in Realtek Audio Control will not work) : Delete the ThirdParty folder from AUDIO_Realtek_UAD_ASUS_ROG-PRIME-TUF_MB_v6.0.xxxx.x folder then follow scrupulously your INSTALL process with cleanup step (without installing SS3, SR3 & DTS Sound Unbound).

- Full without Sonic Studio Virtual Mixer (don't work for ROG Z490 & B460 motherboards) : Follow scrupulously this process.

- Full : Follow scrupulously your INSTALL process with cleanup step.


Awesome, Minimal is exactly what I wanted, worked great...thank you.

I really don't understand the negativity towards MoKiChU, he presents us with great drivers and an enormous amount of technical information and assistance.

He does not work for Asus, he does it off his own back and in his own time. I think the mods need to take a step back and look at the bigger picture here.

His contribution to this forum and the ROG space in general far outweighs the one or two issues he has had with users. I'm sure it was just a clash of language barriers and no malice or intent to harm any user is ever present.

Everyone should put aside their ego's and help us end users to continue using Asus products.

MoKiChU is an asset to this forum and his work is greatly appreciated by many.

Just wanted to let you know that installing the ROG SS3 package was NOT reversible with WIndows 10 system recovery (i created a restore point prior to installing these) , resulting in a hanging restore process trying to recover the registry.

Also it completely destroyed the calibration of my USB COBRA MK5 , Joystick (after installing the drivers , rebooting and starting Elite Dangerous my Ship was in spin that couldnt be recovered from). Thats when i tried to go back and use system recovery. I had to remove these devices, shut down, reboot ,they wouldnt show up anymore, shutdown again disconnect the devices from the computer, reboot, shutdown again, boot ,plugin joystick 1 (HOTAS X ) after desktop loaed,, shutdown, plugin COBRA MK5 (this one NEEDs to be plugged in while the system is powered off) boot, all devices work again as they should. Something with that driver install has messed with things it shouldnt mess with.

(note that both HOTAS X and Cobra MK5 do not use 3rd party drivers or software, they are supported natively by windows 10)

Which install process do I use for the Z490-I?

I am guessing I use the SS3 but I am not sure how to match my mobo audio spec with the install process.
