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

Ok, we will start from the beginning since you never asked.

You have an ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboard Gen1, so :

You need Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG SS3-DTS MB) Gen1 or Gen2 (Recommended) 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.

Also, to avoid ZoneID blocking trouble :

- For each downloaded .zip : ZoneID unblock the .zip (Right click on the .zip file > Properties > Check the box Unblock > OK).

or

- Disable the ZoneID blocking completely (you will no longer have to unblock each downloaded .zip) :

- Right-click Windows Start button then click Launch then type gpedit.msc > OK
- User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Attachment Manager
- Do not preserve zone information in file attachment : Enabled > OK.

Thanks a lot . All fixed on my second attempt . I guess I did something wrong last time .
Thanks again .

Searched through the last 10 pages or so and couldnt find which driver to use for a ROG Hero z690 motherboard. Also I installed the driver from the motherboards support page but it installed the realtek usb audio driver. Do I need to uninstall that first? Thanks in advance.

Think I found my answer a few more pages back
"All ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboards with ALC408x codec (USB) that exist on the market today and that will be released from today are Gen2 (Intel Z590/Z690 & Last AMD X570 ...).

ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboards Gen2 are only Gen2 drivers compatible.
ASUS ROG SS3|DTS Sound Unbound motherboards Gen2 (USB) are only Gen2 drivers compatible."

I still dont know about how USB figures into it though.

@Medwynd
Here someone explains the connection between USB and the new Audio Codec ALC4080: https://www.igorslab.de/en/the-old-a...c1220-insider/
Maybe that will help you a little.

Thanks MoKiChU
This one sounds really good, nothing sounds too clipped or compressed, and subs have great punch and thump.
