If you talking about the Realtek audio drivers for Windows : the drivers from the Realtek support page are obsolete. If you keep enabled your audio chispet on the BIOS of your motherboard, it will be active on Windows and Linux, so you need drivers for both : There is no issue with installing the most uptodate Realtek drivers supplied by the manufacturer, right? I have a ROG STRIX Z390E gaming MoBo. No, only Windows 10 /RS3/16299.x or more recent.Īhhh so since your drivers just support Windows and the only reason I am keep the Realtek integrated sound enabled is for Linux, then I should opt for the Realtek drivers and obtain and install these drivers from their website, right? For the next drivers packages that I would release (when they are available), you will can directly follow the UPDATE process If you want to switch to the drivers that I offer, you must uninstall the drivers offered on the support page of your motherboard by simply following your CLEANUP process and then install the drivers that I offer by following your INSTALL process. If you want to switch to the drivers offered on the support page of your motherboard, you need to uninstall the drivers that I offer by simply following your CLEANUP process and then install the drivers offered on the support page for your motherboard. In this context, do your UAD drivers support Linux? Should I opt for the minimal driver install rather than include SupremeFX if I don't use the Realtek, but just want to keep it active? It is my understanding that Realtek sound is better supported in Linux than Soundblaster. I keep the onboard sound enabled to eventually use in Linux. I don't use the ROG onboard Realtek Audio but a Creative Labs AE-9 soundcard instead. The next Realtek Drivers UAD release by you can be updated through the normal vendor update process as opposed to the lengthy tutorial, correct? When do you expect to release the new drivers?

So SupremeFX is just the Realtek Audio platform rebranded and modified for ROG Motherboards, right? Note (in order to choose correctly the install/update process to use) : You have a ASUS ROG SS3 motherboard.Īlso, If you are looking to perform a custom install (like minimal, which is such as Microsoft built-in drivers without any SupremeFX/Realtek Audio software), please refer to this post : (UAD-Intel-2xx-3xx-4xx-amp-AM.Ī few follow-up questions, comments and clarifications: Follow scrupulously your INSTALL process with cleanup step, for the next drivers packages that I would release, you will can directly follow the UPDATE process. You need Realtek Audio Drivers (UAD - ASUS ROG/ PRIME/ TUF MB) from my UAD drivers thread. SupremeFX = Realtek Audio for ROG products, so SupremeFX software = Realtek HD Audio Manager (HDA drivers) = Realtek Audio Control (UAD drivers).
