Latest Realtek HD Audio Driver Version

No I've not tried 8416 @asturias7

I've come to the conclusion that I no longer know how things work regarding these updates.
The Hardware IDs never match the ones I have, yet all of the recent updates (the ones that are 137-139 MB) work for me and update with no problems. I'm just going to say that it's a hit and miss situation. I wish we could have some sort of explanation, but we probably never will... unfortunately.

same why are they attaching hardware id to them, as realtek never did that .

I always thought it's just MS listing what id's the driver version actually has changes for, and the package is still compatible with whatever broad range since ones that sometimes list only one id will still install. But right, will probably never know.

Have you tried going on the Microsoft Update Catalog and using either of those hardware IDs as a search parameter?

what part do i put in DooGie ??

yeah they pulled up but all lower drivers then version 6.0.1.8366 here are the ones it listed for mine if you care to look. https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=DEV_0892
