It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available. Do not forget to check with our site as often as possible in order to stay updated on the latest drivers, software and games. Please set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed a wrong driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.

They can be a bit messy with the modifications to the system, but I haven't had any performance / stability issues at all with them, and I've been running the unofficial ones for a while now.
Is it just me, or do Realtek make the worst drivers imaginable? I've taken to not installing them and letting Windows 10 do its own thing now. Systems seems to run better as a result.

As far as I'm aware, Windows still downloads official Realtek drivers but it acquires the bare minimum to function. With the exception of AMD/Nvidia GPUs (but not Intel) and devices that Windows has no built-in support for (such as TV tuners) I will often go out of my way to try extracting just the bare minimum files to get the device working, such as .inf, .cab, .sys, and so on.
Most software that drivers come with is bloat to me. Windows is already too bloated as-is.
Though Linux's audio stack is messy compared to Windows', I do have to admit that it's pretty convenient that, assuming the driver exists, everything "just works" without having to do anything or use wonky+bloated 3rd party software.

As rule always uninstall the old one first then install the news ones.
It nice see they final got around update there audio driver after 1+year boy that lo ng time but it so sad that they still haven't done any thing with audio manager UI which is really out date which what like 15 years old come on realtek get with the program.
Hmmm Linux's audio stack messy compared to Windows' need to say that wrong as Sound Blaster Z series are all but useless under linux vs realtek.

Why update it if it works? The UI manager does everything it needs to, at least for me it does. Generally speaking, whatever it doesn't do, the Windows settings will do instead.
Hmmm Linux's audio stack messy compared to Windows' need to say that wrong as Sound Blaster Z series are all but useless under linux vs realtek.
...how does a non-working driver make the audio stack not messy? Not only does that not prove the statement false but it's not even completely related. Anyway, it's pretty common knowledge among Linux users that Creative is negligent of their drivers. There are plenty of good alternatives.
