    8432 does not exist but 8433 does.
    I was kinda wrong on this one as MS posted 8432 later on.
    v6.0.1.8432 x86/32bit full-fledged downloads from MS [80Mb to 90Mb] (1st download) (2nd download with Nahimic integration files)
    there's also another v8432 download from MS but that one is for specific Lenovo based SST Realtek audio devices only & bundles several Dolby apps and is for Win10 x64 only

    MUC have released these as well. I haven't bothered checking the details/specs...

    Thanks for the heads up @asturias7 :)

    As an aside, are you finding this driver as good as I am ?
    I'm going to throw in with you on the 6.0.1.8447 set. I tried them with my old faithful 24x48,000 Test File and found them as good or better than all I have tried before and the control panel is intact. All the details, separation, highs and lows and panning effects sounded as intended when I recorded/mixed it. The bass is very 'present' without muddying the highs I think. So the 8447s are my new favorite/go to driver too.

    Important part for me, it gave me louder sound on Youtube and in browser video much louder sound, it's been pretty quiet until this one. Finally something different.

    Quick question: Do these audio driver updates depend on the Hardware ID? I'm asking cos I've had the Reaktek HD Audio Manager stop working for me when I've installed some of these drivers manually...

    Most are universal, some show as for specific use.

    Understood, but then how do I differentiate as to which is which?

    It shows it's use in the description, just lately there were drivers just for one type of Asus MBs for instance. The ones that don't show particular system or use cover a wide number of Realtek chips.

    I'm wondering if 8447 by any chance includes Creative support. My main system motherboard has SoundBlaster Cinema 3 that won't work unless the Realtek driver supports it. I'm using 8216 on that PC now, but want to move up.

    nope. unless you download customized Realtek drivers with Creative SBCinema3 integration on it from the motherboard maker or OEM/PC manufacturer themselves. many times, the Realtek audio drivers from Microsoft do NOT include the Creative integration DLL files (mbapo232.dll, mbapo264.dll, etc.)

    Edit 1: For your situation, larc919, try this v6.0.1.8393 driver with Creative integration from Microsoft. this is the latest one I know of that has the Creative DLL files that is compatible with certain Realtek chipsets. Use 7zip to extract all the files inside the CAB file and use Device Manager to install the drivers.

    Edit 2: v6.0.1.8425 (customized driver) with Waves MaxxAudio integration & application software from MS Update and Dell (for Realtek ALC3246 audio chips on certain Dell laptops only).
