OS requirements : Windows 10 64 bit or more recent.
Hardware requirements (AMD) : ASUS ROG motherboards with AMD 5xx/6xx/8xx series chipsets with ALC40xx codec.
Hardware requirements (AMD - sTRX4) : ASUS ROG/PRIME motherboards with AMD TRX40 chipset.
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).

Many thanks for your information, however I have a question, I put back "Realtek Audio Driver V6.3.9600.2333 For Windows 10/11 64-bit." to have my Sonic studio 3 software working and I'm happy because the new drivers from 2024/09/24 were bad... Asus re-released drivers on 2025/03/11 are those reliable or do you advise me to stay on my old version? 🙂

Hi,

You have an ASUS ROG Realtek|Dolby Atmos motherboard with ALC40xx codec, so :

You need Realtek USB Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG RTK-Dolby) from the first post of this thread.
