So I figured, why not try those drivers? And it worked!

They are the "Realtek high definition audio driver ver:8454" posted 2018/7/23.

I would imagine this would also work for the z370 taichi as the audio chipset is the same on all 3 boards (taichi, extreme4 and Fatal1ty) but somebody with the taichi will need to confirm.


It work on Taichi too!

I contacted AsRock tech support and they sent me a download link to a working set of drivers, version 8470. I believe the driver-file on the AsRock download page has now been updated as well.

Also tried installing the drivers on 7/31 with no success. Looks like they added another driver update today but it doesn't work either. The drivers on softpedia work fine for me.

They added yet another updated Realtek drivers today 2018/8/9, "Realtek high definition audio driver ver:8496_UAD_WHQL".

Have not tested as I decided to buy a sound blaster ae-5 which is what I am using now.

Maybe someone else can test and report back?

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. Everything sounds weird. I never had a so bad sound card never in my pc. Even one that cost 5 USD...

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.
