9202 UAD MSI driver - for modern MSI laptops (no special integration like Nahimic included)
can also be used on modern MSI desktop boards as well
Interesting.
I had to go digging deep into the official drivers offered for my MSI MEG X570 GODLIKE mobo to figure out it is Nahimic APO3.
MSI's naming convention for the .ZIP files leaves a lot to be desired.
I think, though, I should be able to use the APO3 DL. The ones without Nahimic always screw up on this board.
Installed the 9202 APO3 for my MEG X570 GODLIKE mobo.
Windows 11 then told me that A-Volute Software Component 3.3.3.0 was available to install, so I did.
Now fully on 9202. Sounds good.
Still cannot figure out why MSI is not updating the actual driver available for my motherboard - they want me to install a 9057 package from a year ago lol.
Yea... drivers is the last thing MSI thinks about... Dont get me started on the hacky bloat the MSI Dragon Center or what they even what to call their bloatware utilities nowadays... [installs all the shit, does changes in your current system settings+++ without giving you any options]
The devil in me wispers: We already got money for the motherboard... so f*** them.. It's all about the money.... so why update somting that works at the time they bought ouer stuff...
Not only MSI does this... You realy have to crawl the internet for new drivers... but thenagain... If it works, dont fix.... unless you get new and usefull features out of it...
Well, TBH, though, they're doing a halfway decent job with other drivers. The BT and Killer AX1650x Wifi drivers were just updated again within the last week, the Marvel AQtion 10G Ethernet card has drivers from February, even their AMD specific drivers and and onboard Graphics drivers (for those who need it) are rarely ever more than a week behind from official AMD releases.
It's just this one thing, the RealTek drivers. And I suspect that it might have to do with Windows Update being able to handle all the updates, as both the RealTek Audio Console and the Nahimic 3 apps are straight out of the Windows Store anyway.
I'd just rather not let my system drivers be updated by WU, because of too many issues when running IP builds in the past, and since I'm on Win11, I'm on an IP build (again). lol.
