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,

I don't offer audio drivers packages for notebooks/laptops in order to focus on my field : DIY PC/Motherboards (hence the fact that my threads are in Motherboards category).

Please refer to your product support page to download the appropriate drivers for your product (if you have any issue with them, please contact ASUS Support).

Hi,

You have an ASUS TUF DTS Audio Processing motherboard, so :

You need Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS TUF/PRIME DTS AP) from the first post of this thread.

Follow scrupulously your CLEANUP process then your INSTALL process, for the next drivers packages that I would release, you will can directly follow your UPDATE process.

Thank You sir! Works flawless every time! Much Love @MoKiChU

Hello,can u help me,i don't know which driver to download.My laptop is Asus FX705GE-EW092 the i7-8750H version and for the love of god i can't figure out what my motherboard is nor online nor through "system information" or through a 3rd party app.Can u please point me to which driver i should download,i think it might be Asus TUF/PRIME DTS Headphone:X v1 cuz that sounds familiar but i am not sure.My audio is buggy and Realtek App won't open.I've downloaded realtek drivers from both Asus official site(as per my laptop model) and Realtek official site but those are from 2017 or 2019 and that can't be right.

Hello,

I have an ASUS ROG SS3 DTS Sound Unbound Motherboard,

I'm confused at the 'Install' part, need to launch 'Install.cmd' by right clicking part.

How to do that 'install.cmd' part exactly?

Sorry for bothering everyone.

[rusTORK]

>>>I'm confused at the 'Install' part, need to launch 'Install.cmd' by right clicking part.

Are you sure you use PC? Right click is very basic part of PC mouse function.

Another thing which is strange, that you sure about type of motherboard.

Anyway... Basicly, you click by right button of you mouse on "install.cmd" file and choose option in pop-up menu "Run as administrator". That's pretty much it.
