Hope that helps!

Thanks Argonil.
Unfortunately this good result is not what many (including myself) are experiencing.
Perhaps there is some correlation between these issues and Nvidia sound drivers, but like many I rely on the HDMI sound drivers for my Nvidia card for things like VR so I can't avoid installing them to the best of my knowledge.

I'm also having this issue. I've now tried the 8454, same blowing out effect and my Mic only works at 100% volume and boost. 8496 also didn't work.

So why do I need the VGA and Lan drivers if I have discrete cards for those? Also, wtf is Rapid Storage Tech and Management Enginer? Finally, what about the USB and SATA, does this motherboard not need it? Everything I read said that was important.

Tested the newer 8496 vs the older 8470 and they have the same problems.  
Whenever I plug anything into the front panel connector, the sound comes out distorted at louder parts in music or games. It's like the audio is peaking even though you have the volume turned way down.  

Getting fed up of this now. Occasionally my ears are blown out by random loud sounds as well.

The sound is crap. There is a high volume variation and noise variation at the begining on every sound. It begins with a normal sound and after 0ne seccond the volume and noise level is higher.
