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,

You have an ASUS PRIME DTS:X Ultra motherboard, so :

You need Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS TUF/PRIME DTSX Ultra) 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.

Hi,

You are in the wrong thread.

You have an ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboard with ALC40xx codec, so :

You need Realtek USB Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS) from the first post of this thread : [DRIVERS] Realtek USB Audio (AMD 5xx/6xx/TRX40 & Intel 5xx/6xx/7xx).

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.

[padbol2000]

This is the procedure I followed. but then I realized that I had to activate the 5.1 speaker configuration and it works. but the new problem is that I have to do it each time I reboot it does not keep my settings. Anyone have an idea? THANKS

Just for feedback:

I tried 4 times to use your drivers. The last try was on August 2023. Motherboard ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING WIFI II. Windows 11, AMD 5600G. Everything was updated, except DTS. It would never install. Nothing happened retrying, even when I thought I did something wrong. Dts never installed, and was not recognised by the DTS app. It only worked if I run the stock dts driver manually, but the audio driver went back. Trying to run the dts driver manually, always came with the "file is invalid". So I am back with the stock one. The windows installation was dirty, upgrade from 10, this was not negotiable. Just for feedback. Thanks for your effort.

Hello MoKiChU, sorry for my question: I want to buy an Asus TUF Gaming X670E-PLUS... what is correct audio driver for this board?

I'd like to buy the Asus Rog X670E HERO, but it's too expensive, I don't need wifi and I don't want to overclock... in your opinion, is the TUF Gaming X670E-PLUS is a good motherboard for 7950X3D??
Thank you so much!

[masprofx]

I'm a happy owner of a TUF Gaming X670E-PLUS with an AMD 7800X3D. Best MB + CPU combo I'ver ever had. For the TUF Gaming X670E-PLUS you need Realtek Audio Drivers UAD - ASUS TUF/PRIME DTS AP.

Cheers
