Latest Realtek HD Audio Driver Version [2]

Hi, sorry for my bad English. I have a problem with Realtek drivers. I have installed the drivers "HDA R2.8x 8531 WHQL" downloaded from site driver-station. These drivers are now a year old, but they are the only ones my mic works with.
I have an integrated sound card (ALC1220) in my Gigabyte motherboard and an headset with mic (HyperX Cloud Alpha).
My problem is that with all subsequent drivers, from 8549 to 8816 the volume of my microphone is very low, like a whisper.
I have always done clean installations but nothing, the only drivers with which the microphone works are the 8531.
I have also tried to change the microphone (Neewer NW-800) but nothing. I have also tried to use the Gigabyte site drivers but the problem of the mircophone persists. Very very low volume.
Does anyone know how I could solve it?
Thanks

I have had the same problem with other versions of the driver, but with this one, at the moment MIC works with good volume.

Are you using Sonic Studio 3?
Edit:
I mean ROG Audio Console

Yes I am. Tried the latest audio driver package from my motherboard support page and also 6.0.8855.1 (thank you for the links, I manually installed the latest Realtek Audio Console and Sonic stuff).

For my phone headset it shows ~15 ohm and works fine when it's connected from the back (line out port on the motherboard) and ~300 ohm - from the front (and from the front it sounds HORRIBLE, many instruments and some voices in music and videos are either really quiet or missing completely and overall it's distorted).

For my PC headset it shows ~700 ohm from both front and back, but when I set the headset inbuilt volume controller to the maximum level and then plug it in - it shows something like ~40 ohm, but then I have to lower the volume and after reboot it shows 700 ohm again, I'm afraid I will lose my newly-bought PC headset (the older one died after having been used through the front audio port so I'm not at all being paranoid).

Thanks, but how do I install the drivers? I can't find .exe

Manually setting it for each headset, doesn't stick after changing them?

If you mean "Amplify level" - it does I think.
But "Impedance" seems not to depend on that and it's not manually changeable, it shows what it detects automatically I guess, and for my phone headset it's detected as 300 ohm for the front port and it sounds really really bad. The same headset works fine when connected to the motherboard lineout port and also with my Android phone, so it's not the headset's fault.

Tried: clear cmos, load optimized defaults, different windows editions (pro/enterprise v1909). The authorized service center checked my motherboard and said they found nothing wrong with it, may be they just didn't really want to say it was broken and needed to be replaced, they may be hoping I will give up and keep losing PC headsets to that motherboard...

Where can I found drivers for ROG MAXIMUS IX HERO?

Wow all his driver/Bios/software threads for all motherboards have been deleted and moved to general discussion forum
and he has been dropped down to a white belt(was orange or brown I think)
It doesn't show banned though, but on his threads, all his post except for the first one, have been nuked.
Don't know if he quit, or got in trouble.
Misunderstanding can cause one to make bad decisions, or say the wrong thing.

Looks like it's happened here too now guys , I see his avatar has BANNED thru it a couple of pages back.

Realtek_HDA_ASUS_ROG_SSx_v6.0.8816 Here. This is the latest official HDA driver that was made under Asus. Sonic studio set separately.
But I honestly prefer to use the Asus driver from the Zenith motherboard version 8339 from the Asus site. I like the sound most of all, a little louder, wider. There were no problems with him.
