Hi,
No, you can't use other drivers than those designed for your motherboard type.
No matter what mb model. (the sound chip has nothing to do with the board - it is standalone device with standard specification)
DTS+SS3 drivers work on same chip as mine (alc1220a)
But its not install, because my mb vendor not present in inf file (or else hardcoded check)
It's all marketing trick and software lock
The same situation with RAMCache 3. I cant install it (your hardware is not supported) (only RAMCache 2 for my mb)
Why i shold use depricated bugged version that not update two years? buggy so much that it cannot create its own settings file - wrong file permission.
I bypass vendor check via debugger now RAMCache 3 work perfect....
p/s This is not a very good asus policy towards users and customers.
Sorry my english
MoKiChU, add this to drivers
This missed component for all ss3 versions (it is virtual mixer)

Mokichu does not author drivers and does not work for ASUS. He is donating his time to help other users.
I don't know the inner workings of ASUS but generally if a feature is not available for your board it is either because you do not have a license for it or it is not tested for use. For ASUS to remedy either of those situations would cost money and make your board more expensive. If you wish to have a feature make sure it is available at the time of purchase. Do not expect features to be added later as that occurrence is quite rare.
I just updated my Z390-E to the ver. 6.0.9030.1 drivers, closely following the Cleanup/Install procedures. I ran the SS3 Cleaner tool in an attempt to fix the faulting NahimivSvc32.exe app. I also had to manually reinstall Realtek Audio Console. (I have not yet reinstalled either Sonic Studio app.)
Result:
Device Manager confirms that the driver is now ver. 6.0.9030.1. 🙂
The faulting application NahimicSvc32.exe has returned . 😞
The speaker icon in the lower right corner of the screen shows I have three playback devices, 1) Speakers (Realtek Audio), 2) Dell UP3017 (NVIDIA High Definition Audio), and 3) Realtek Digital Output (Realtek Audio)
I can only use device #1 (Speakers) in my web browsers (Firefox or Edge); if I select device #3 (Realtek Digital Output) there is no sound.
However, my music apps (Qobuz, iTunes) allow me to play on either device: #1 (Speakers) or #3 (Realtek Digital Output).
So for now I'm keeping audio on device #1(Speakers), and have disabled the Nahimic service.
Is this about as good as I can expect? Many thanks for advice.

Further Information: I discovered that a Nahimic service was taking up all my CPU processing (screenshot), so now I have disabled all Nahimic services from starting using Autoruns. Does anyone have any advice about what these Nahimic apps are doing or trying to do? Thanks.

Since I've had no responses, I will try once more with a simplified question: Given that I've disabled of all the Nahimic exes from loading (NahimicSvc32Run, NahimicSvc64Run, NahimicTask32, NahimicTask64, and NahimicService) since they either won't load or use up all the CPU time, can I just delete these exes from the folders "syswow64" and " system32"?
All advice greatly appreciated.
