OS requirements : Windows 10 64 bit or more recent.

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).

@ MOKICHU, I have the Asus Rog Strix E gaming x570 MB. Can I use your top drivers that say "Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3 MB) Drivers : 6.0.8996.1 WHQL [28/07/2020]" versus the second ones that say " Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS MB) : Drivers : 6.0.8984.1 WHQL [07/07/2020]" ?

I noticed the driver version is more recent on the top one (6.0.8996.1 vs. 6.0.8984.1).

Thanks

Hello all.

What would be the correct driver for my motherboard?
I'ts ROG MAXIMUS HERO XI

It's a bit confusing on the first page. So many releases.

And also, on my motherboard page, the driver there from REALTEK doesn't seem to resemble any of those in this thread's first page.

So...which one? 😄

Hi,

You have an ASUS ROG SS3 motherboard, so :

You need Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3 MB) 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.

Thanks I will.

So i should no longer use the asus pages for my Motherboard regarding the realtek audio driver but this thread instead?
And also, should I uninstall Realtek Audio Control too?

PS: How much out of date is the last version on my motherboards page? 😄

Thank you for your prompt reply. May I ask for a quick clarification?

One of the instructions in your cleanup process is to uninstall "Realtek Audio Control." I do not have a program called exactly that, but I do have one called "Realtek Audio Console." (Please see the included screenshot.) Are they the same? Should I remove the Console as part of the cleanup?

Thanks.

Hi,

Yes, it is indeed the same thing, the app in the Microsoft Store is called Realtek Audio Control, and once installed on your PC, it is called Realtek Audio Console.
However, to avoid any ambiguity in the future, I edited all the processes of my threads in order to show the two names (Realtek Audio Control > Realtek Audio Control/Console).

Is this normal or not? Anybody with a z490 ROG board and latest drivers experiencing automatic Amplify level switching to match impedance sensor's readings regardless of what it is manually selected in Realtek Audio Console?

Hi,

Yes this is normal, I have already spoken about this :

MoKiChU wrote:
Hi,

When you plug (unplug then plug if already plugged) the jack 3.5 mm of a headphone, the automatic impedance detection will automatically choose the appropriate level of amplification for you (depending on the impedance of the headphone), but you can force it to, Powerful or Extreme manually.

On the other hand, when you use jack 3.5mm to connect audio active/powered equipment (like powered speakers), the automatic impedance detection does not distinguish between passive (like a headphone) and active equipment (like powered speakers) and therefore will wrongly try to detect the impedance audio active/powered equipment, and wrongly adjust the amplification level to Extreme while a audio active/powered equipment should not receive amplified audio stream (to avoid reducing the lifespan of your equipment and not to saturate the sound spectrum).

So, in order to avoid reducing the lifespan of your equipment and not to saturate the sound spectrum, I advise all people who use jack 3.5mm to connect audio active/powered equipment (headsets jack 3.5 mm are not concerned because they are passive/not powered equipment) to set this parameter on Performance, whatever the result of the automatic impedance detection.

If you want to avoid this automatic impedance detection, buy an jack 3.5 mm extension (male - female), connect the jack 3.5 mm extension (male side) to your motherboard, and plug/unplug your headphones at the female side of your jack 3.5 mm extension, the automatic impedance detection will not be done.

Hi MokiChU, thanks for the answer.

If I understood correctly what you suggested (but I'm not sure about that) it can certainly be considered a workaround, at least in part. The point is (but maybe I could be wrong) that you can bypass, in a sense, the sensor check on headphones impedance by occupying the jack port with the extension cable prior to connecting them to it, and by doing vice versa when unplugging them (first you unplug the headphones from the extension, and only then you unplug the extension cable itself from the jack port), so that no variation in impedance reading can change the Amplify level you set. But this works (at least for me) only if you hadn't enable before "Make front and rear output devices playback two different audio streams simultaneously", otherwise as soon as the jack port is occupied (even by the extension cable alone) and "Realtek HD Audio 2nd output" appears in the Console the Amplify level is set back to "Extreme" for both devices. Not to mention the fact that in this way you retain the "Performance" Amplify level for the speakers at the cost of having to manually change the parameter if you want a different Amplify level for your headphones (in my case "Extreme").

Another (pseudo-)solution I found is to activate, in Advanced Settings, "Disable front panel popup dialog", deactivate "Enable Jack detection when device is plugged in", and check "Make front and rear output devices playback two different audio streams simultaneously". By doing this every device remains always active (even 2nd output and microphone), so that whatever Amplify level you set stays like that for each device, no matter what you plug/unplug, since jack detection is disabled. But you have to manually switch between playback devices when you want to listen to headphones or speakers respectively, because after plugging/unplugging jack the switch won't be automatic anymore.

Am i missing something? I hope I didn't write anything too silly, and sorry for being a nuisance, but I just want to understand if I did something wrong. If I didn't, what I'm asking is: wouldn't it be possible to make user values simply override sensor readings no matter what?

Hi MoKiChU,

Version 6.0.9030.1 working fine on Z370-G.

Thank you for all your work and support! You rock!!

[rgen44]

Again thank you MoKiChU, I also have been using your drivers for a while and they always have worked well for me. One thing to mention (this has to do with my machine but just to mention it), for some reason i have yet to get into and find out why but your bat script will not run for me. All i get is a flash of the dos box. I have just been following your install list and going to each inf file and installing them manually. Your work is much appreciated. Stay Well!

Edit: Want to be clear, the 9030 works fine on my ASUS Prine Z390 A. It's just your cmd bat files don't run for me. It is not you, it's something on my end.

Sorry to bug Mr. M, but what RTA driver should I download?
I just upgraded my mobo too the Rog Maximus XII Formula.

Thank you sir.
