I was looking for an Asus motherboard that has Dolby and/or DTS audio technology built in. There appear to be very few. In fact, I've only found one so far and that is the Prime X399-A motherboard for AMD Threadripper CPU's (TR4). It says it has the Realtek ALC1220A audio codec. It says it supports DTS Connect and DTS Headphone: X.
The more expensive TR4 motherboards on the other hand have the SupremeFX S1220A audio codec and do not support any DTS technologies. This makes absolutely no sense and is really annoying. Why are we being asked to pay more for worse audio? Motherboards this expensive should have all of the latest DTS and Dolby audio technologies built in.
Also, the Strix TR4 motherboard is completely missing an Overview page. And there's no way to sort motherboards by price or quality level on the crappy Asus website.
