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).

Question.. what audio drivers are the correct ones for the Z790 Hero board? Since Day 1 of having the board and with a fresh install of Win11. I have constantly gotten random AudioDG.Exe application crashes. 72 of them in the last 2 days. I'm not sure what to do... I have reinstalled the audio drivers based on the official ones from the support site. I'm unsure if these will help or not. Thanks

When you say:

- Go in "Apps" folder > Install your apps from the Microsoft Store shortcuts :

Realtek Audio Control/Console + Sonic Studio III & Sonic Radar III (Optional)

Do you mean this entire section of installing the apps is optional or that Realtek Audio Control/Console is required and Sonic Studio III & Sonic Radar III is optional?

Hi,

Only Sonic Radar III is optional. However, you posted in the wrong thread.

You have an ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboard with ALC408x codec, so :

You need Realtek USB Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS) from the first post of this thread : [DRIVERS] Realtek USB Audio (Intel 5xx/6xx/7xx & AMD 5xx/6xx/TRX40).

Thread updated.

[schm0]

Thanks for the update.

But I think something is off with the update process.
Every time I do an update my sound is weird after this.
Sound is flatter and sometimes there is sound distortion on the left channel.

Hi, i have a rog strix x670e-f, which drivers do i need?

[Lotek]

Hello, cannot get the Realtek Audio Console to work. "Realtek Audio Cannot connect to RPC service" I have tried the Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS) and followed the meticulous install docs on a fresh windows 11 install. Sonic Studio works but no Realtek Audio Console. Any help would be appreciated.
