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).

Hi @MoKiChU I've updated my X670E Hero with your latest driver the SS one, not the SS3 legacy, following ur guide with the clean steps, I've notice that the Amplify on the front panel doesn't work, the realtek app show the section but changing it doesn't make any difference, with the old legacy SS3 works, can you check it?

Thanks for all ur work!

EDIT: Also the boost on the mic doesn't work and volume is very low
