OS requirements : Windows 10 64 bit or more recent.
Hardware requirements (Intel) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME motherboards with Intel 2xx/3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx/7xx series chipsets (except ROG with ALC408x).
Hardware requirements (AMD) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME motherboards with AMD 3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx series chipsets (except ROG with ALC408x).

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).

the microsoft store apps e.g. DTS Sound Unbound the website works, but when u click get, open with microsoft store, it says can't be found.

last time i managed to get this to work, but why is it not working now?

Yes i did the clean up procedure, and restarted 😕 i'm confused

[GettnBetter]

Is there a way to set the LFE crossover frequency manually with these drivers?

[skrybe]

Was just looking at these again and noticed they're about 50MB compared to 600MB for the Asus download. That's a pretty huge difference. What's been cut out? Is it just useless "fluff"?

edit: Nevermind, just realised most of the stuff from the Asus install is still there but split into the other packages.

Thank you @MoKiChU. STAY WELL!

Can someone advise which is the correct bundle to download for CH VIII Impact? I know it has DTS, but I cannot for the life of me work out which is the correct bundle.

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.

[wvwvw]

Realtek audio console can be updated to 1.35.269, not through store only manually. Link auto downloads

Awesome, thank you Mokichu.

[Cliff_S]

Thank you MoKiChU:)

Edit:
They sound really good, the bass and subs have a brutal thump and punch, and the mids and highs sound good too.
