[DRIVERS] Realtek Audio (Intel 2xx/3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx/7xx & AMD 3xx/4xx/5xx/6xx)

At the risk of betraying my lack of technical expertise, I 'd like to ask why these updates come so frequently. What's the best strategy on updates? Installl them all as they come out, or, once you've found a stable one, just stick with it?

Thanks.

As long as I can remember (since back in early pre-SP1 Vista days), I don't recall ever seeing an audio driver update actually do anything. Sound still came out the speakers the same way it did before; not worse nor better. Even on my current PRIME X470-PRO motherboard, I haven't seen any driver "update" do anything, regardless of where it came from (this post, MUC, ASUS). I don't use any software EQ though, so it's possible drivers really only affect that.

In my case, I keep updating just to know I have up-to-date drivers :p

Hi everyone,

get BSOD if I enable "two different audio streams simultaneously" in audio console.

Hi MoKiChU,

OK, got it. Your installer works perfectly. Thank you supporting us with latest drivers.

Works great for me! Many thanks for providing these.

I see DTS DtsApo4Service.exe 1.5.3.0 Application app crashes in my reliability history but they don't appear to affect anything. Wondering if it is when I shut frown, which I have been doing a lot.

Had no issue enabling two audio streams simultaneously on 6.0.9030.1 (though I haven't used that). Never had any BSOD on any versions.

If the drivers work fine, people likely won't say anything :p I believe it's largely like that with anything. Like with video games, people who are happy are going to be playing the game, whereas people who aren't happy will be on the forums complaining or review-bombing.

ASUS doesn't make it easy to sign-up on their forum or to even post either. Had to wait a day or two for my account to be manually activated, and Google captcha for every post is annoying to deal with since it wants to intentionally fail the first two tries. If I hadn't wanted to ask which driver to be using for my motherboard, I wouldn't have an account on these forums or be providing feedback.

But in my case, I enjoy these drivers; they're provided in a nice lightweight package, and seemingly are more up-to-date than any other source I know of. Thanks for providing them!

MoKiChU,

I think you underestimate how many people are much more than satisfied (and, unfortunately, silently appreciate) your efforts. I realize how much work it is and I hope you choose to continue this valuable effort.

Best regards

Trust me, there are way more happy people than unhappy, maybe 3% of them unhappy, but those unhappy will post regularly, while happy users will just enjoy with drivers and music experience. Hundreds of users are downloading drivers from here, and maybe couple of them are unhappy and complain, so when you look at those statistic it is clear, happy users are majority, about 98%. Like someone else said, happy users install drivers and enjoy, they don't bother posting here so this should be your motivation, You help a lot of people, and i recommended you and your drivers to many people. Sorry for bad english, i dind't have english in school unfortunately.

But that is always the case. Sure you are doing this on your own time, gratis, and I get that, they probably don't. You, as a provider, should ignore that. I think your subscribers should, as you point out, that they have no issue, but also an appreciation that this is a time consuming effort that you provide with no compensation except thanks.

Maybe you could put a note on the first page to this effect . I would certainly endorse that.

And again, thanks.

Hello,
all of your last drivers worked fine on my board (ASUS ROG-Strix B360-I Gaming and newest win10 version). I had no problems.
Thank you very much for your great support.
