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).

Thank you @MoKiChU. STAY WELL!

Unfortunately, this latest version broke my audio, there is no sound anymore with ROG Crosshair VIII Hero. Is it possible for you to share link for previous version of the ROG DTS driver? 😞

ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboards - I don't see a link for these drivers, I miss something or need to use another one?

Hi,

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

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

[AngelHeart]

Well, I give up..
I tried everything MoKiChU has said, clean install, MSI enabled, system is on high performance and all the other drivers and BIOS up to date. Everything is fine for a few hours after system boot, and then it starts to pop/crack, and still have sound delays on some Youtube videos.

Note to Mokichu,

I have been using your updates for a long time and as mentioned before am very grateful for your input.

However it has been impossible to do a thorough clean before updating my sound the last 6 updates or so , due to this process disabling my Kaysuda Hello camera on re login.
If I just update the realtek driver without this process, subsequent reboots work normally . I installed the camera on 25/12/20 and otherwise the systems and sound works 100%.

Any suggestions would be appreciated, as I would prefer to clean the system before updating realtek.

Thanks

Hi Mokichu,

I have just purchased a ROG STRIX B560-F GAMING WIFI motherboard.

I tried using the SS3 drivers on the Asus website but it causes Cold War to intermittently start. (removing drivers it starts every time)
Realtek Audio Driver V6.0.9088.1 For Windows 10 64-bit.
Improve system stability & Support Windows 10 latest version.

Can these drivers be used on this motherboard?

Kind regards
