   Hello there

Recently I built a ryzen pc and no matter what I do I cannot get audio from the motherboard (rear jack or front panel) I only get audio through hdmi.
I've installed the realtek drivers from asrock  multiple times and have reinstalled windows 10 multiple times too. I'd be extremely grateful if anybody can help me because I really don't have the budget to buy a decent sound card.

My pc

Mb: asrock  x370 killer sli
Cpu: ryzen 5 1600x
Gpu: sapphire 590 nitro+
Ram: 16gb corsair vengeance 2666mhz ram

	First, you may want yo check if your BIOS options are not set for AC'97/legacy instead of HD Audio. Then you can flash the lates BIOS (could be a beta too). Clear CMOS a few times for a good measure. Check the mobo for blown audio caps, bending or short circuits (both to case and between vias & traces). You may also want to try some LiveCD Linux distro, just to see if Linux can outpit the audio.

	Well, at this point it's pretty clear for me. I think you need a new mobo or an external sound card, because the on-board one is kaput. That or you have a bad audio cable/speakers/headset.
