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,

Disregard what is displayed in Armoury Crate, it just cannot find the drivers version marker ASUS uses for their drivers packages.

Regarding the Third Party Drivers, they are contained (as you can see below the version of the driver packages) and installed with the Realtek Audio Drivers.

MokiChu do you know which driver is for my old laptop https://www.asus.com/us/Laptops/ROG-G701VO/ ?
Thanks in advance

And something else! The x570-e Gaming is it now Gen 1 or 2?

I can't seem to get any driver working with the Rog Strix B550-E Gaming WiFi

I did have it working (including the audio USB type-C) but accidentally installed Sonic Studio and tried to remove, which now means nothing seems to install (I've removed the inf files) but Windows Store won't install the Realtek Control Panel (or whatever it's called).

Hi MoKiChU, just wanted to confirm the correct driver package for my motherboard, as I'm a bit confused by the new dichotomy (Gen1/Gen2) on the ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound drivers. Based on what I've been able to determine, it looks the ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Hero W-Fi utilizes the SupremeFX S1220 audio codec (a rebadged Realtek ALC1220). That leads me to believe Gen1 is the correct driver download for this, but I would appreciate it if you could confirm.

Also, it seems there was a major change in these drivers that requires a full cleanup and re-install, correct? Thanks much!

Note: AUDIO_Realtek_UAD_ASUS_ROG_SS3-DTS_MB_v6.0.9254.1.zip is the last version that I installed, fwiw.

The B550-E is advertised as having DTS Sound Unbound, yet the driver you've pointed to doesn't mention this. Is that correct?

[DorCoMaNdO]

Hello, I'm trying to help a friend get the latest drivers for their system as your threads helped me get the latest drivers and resolve some performance issues similar to the ones they're currently having, while my driver for the Z390 Gaming-F was easy to figure out, I'm not familiar with the abbreviated names/terms next to each driver category (RTK, DTSX Ultra, DTS AP, etc).
What driver best qualifies for the ASUS TUF B365M-Plus Gaming board?

Its literally included in the name...

When you scroll a bit down further it mentions how to install the DTS Unbound app...
