OS requirements : Windows 10 64 bit or more recent.
Hardware requirements (AMD) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME motherboards with AMD Legacy 6xx/7xx/8xx/9xx series chipsets.
Hardware requirements (Intel) : ASUS ROG/TUF/PRIME motherboards with Intel 6x/7x/8x/9x/1xx series chipsets.
Note : In order to know which Install/Update process 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).

Hi Mokiccu! I have a Ryzen 7 2700x in my ASUS Tuf Gaming 570x-Plus (wifi) mobo. Can you tell me what drivers I can install to update all mobo drivers?

I am having issues installing the Realtek sound driver. I followed your instructions exactly as described.

I uninstalled the sound driver that was llisted in Device Manager (AMD High Definition Audio)

then I useed Windows DriverStore to uninstal the .inf files listed under Sound drivers.

Restarted PC, then uploaded and installed the Custom_DTS.cmd file as Admin. Restared PC again. However, sound drivers do not show Realtek as drivers. Instead, sound driver still shows the AMD High Def Audio drivers and for each of my 3 monitors. Also, sound has serious crackling noise. So, I tried to download the Realtek drivers manually like your instructions say. But neither the Realtek or the DTS drivers downloaded. Realtek download keeps crashing. The DTS download just hangs/freezes (I tried both downloads 6 times). Also, windows search does not show Realtek Audio was downloaded. Any help to problem fix would be nice.

Just noticed the Realtek bluetooth drivers may not have installed either. See screenshots for more info.

Hello, I have the Maximus Impact 6 (https://rog.asus.com/motherboards/rog-maximus/rog-maximus-vi-impact-model/) and my driver installation keeps crashing (BSOD). It seems that rtkvhd64.sys is the culprit. Are the drivers incompatible with my motherboard?
Note: The driver provided by ASUS works fine, but I would have liked to try your driver as its newer and possibly better 🙂
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
You have an ASUS ROG SS1 motherboard, so :
You need Realtek High Definition Audio Drivers (HDA - ASUS ROG SSx 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.
