If you want to manage the drivers (remove old/unused drivers for example) that you have in your Windows DriverStore

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

If you experience crackling, popping, audio stutter
Disable hibernation (Fast Startup included).

6.3.9600.2355 in the same build number,
Are there still internal updates?

[ZiPP3R]

Trying to hunt down some stubborn BSODs, and my realtek drivers in device manager are showing 2022 dates, despite using the official files on https://rog.asus.com/motherboards/rog-maximus/rog-maximus-z790-hero-model/helpdesk_bios/.

Would any of these drivers be a possible updated version for this board? I've had other driver-scan software pop up realtek as out of date, but the computer generally BSODs, shortly after they scan.

Hi,

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.

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.

Thank you for posting driver updates, I have ROG STRIX B650E-I GAMING WIFI that uses ALC4080, Tried downloading this update from the first page with clean install but its failing any ideas ?

Hi,

The MSI Mode Utility I noticed has MsiX on some of my devices and I also found it in the motherboard BIOS settings that ASUS described as better. 

Another question is when I check devices that have MSI or MsiX do I also change the interrupt priority to High or leave it as undefined or just high on audio devices?

Thanks

Hello how are you @MoKiChU , I am new to the forum, I have a question regarding the audio driver that you are showing, to only update the driver is it necessary to uninstall everything, or can it be updated without having to do the whole procedure? Is there a problem if I just do the update? It's not that I have a problem with the controller, I just want to be up to date with the updates, greetings.

Hi,

If I told to new people on my audio drivers threads to follow their CLEANUP process then their INSTALL process, it is in order to start from a clean base.

I only offer OEM original drivers, WHQL signed by Microsoft, so my audio drivers packages can update (or be updated by) the audio drivers packages from your motherboard support page or Armoury Crate by directly following your UPDATE process without following your CLEANUP process then your INSTALL process.
