Hardware requirements (Intel) : ASUS ROG motherboards with Intel 5xx/6xx/7xx/8xx series chipsets with ALC40xx codec.

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 MoKiChU,

thanks for your great work. Unfortunately my sound stops working if I install the latest USB Driver Version on my Rog Strix B650E-F MB. Any ideas. I followed your cleanup and install process. 

Best regards

Hello our savior, MoKiChU,

Thank you very much, kind person!
I have ROG B660-A D5, Sonic Studio 3 stopped working, like many here who complain, I suffered with reinstallations all day.
I found your posts with advice and after thinking a little with my head and following your advice, I finally did it! As before, everything worked, all the fine settings of Sonic Studio 3 worked.
For the first time I learned about the program <<Driver Store Explorer>>, a good thing!
All the best to you, kind person, with respect, 3R7AN8.

After following the steps for my x670e-a gaming, i still have audio where it cuts in and out, and bad quality. I dont know how to fix this and im so stuck. I've followed the steps to remove, reinstall and update but nothing works.

[radosuaf]

Did you update the firmware?

[voltzztm]

yes

[radosuaf]

With the last one that has SPDIF fix, as far as I remember?

[voltzztm]
