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

I have a weird bug: when plugging my headphone in the front panel (didn't try back panel and also have the question, is there a difference between front and back?) they are not recognized unless I enable and disable the "Disable front panel jack detection" switch on Realtek Audio Control. Else the PC just acts like nothing was plugged.

My motherboard is a Crosshair VI Hero and I downloaded the UAD - ASUS ROG SS3 MB 6.0.9231.1 and done everything as stated to cleanup and install. Did I get it right? Should I stick to the MoBo support page driver and downgrade the driver or it's a bug indeed?

A friend of mine is using your software and I can feel the difference in quality he gets. I want to install it on my own computer, but I didn't know which file to download. My motherboard is Asus Prime B450M-K II. I don't have an external sound card. I would be very grateful if you could tell me the suitable driver. Thanks. :rolleyes:

Hi,

You have an ASUS PRIME Realtek motherboard, so :

You need Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME RTK 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.

I have a ROG Maximux X Hero - is this a SS3 motherboard?

can i also install the basic RTK driver if i don't want SS3? what's the advantage to SS3 - just fx, equalizer, etc?

No, you can't use a drivers package not intended for your motherboard. If you don't want SS3 apps, just don't install them.

Hi all,

If I have the AMD ROG Crosshair Hero VII (Hero 7), am I right in identifying that I require Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME RTK MB)?

Thank you in advanced for your aid 🙂
