Would the so called tweaks even exist, they would be in my Support Packs, you can bet that. There are some undocumented registry values, but nothing related to sound quality or performance.
In fact, I have yet to see a driver that states in its release notes that it improves sound quality. If you “feel” the sound better, that is the infamous placebo effect and there is no real proof that any tweaks work.
It is even worse that the so called tweaks come from a person who is not EVEN technically acknowledged, does NOT know anything about Windows internals, software engineering and sound fidelity that all audiophiles always look for. If someone states that a driver improves sound quality and performance, you are being fooled, cheated. No, this driver does not improve sound quality nor increase performance. ĭoes this driver improve sound quality or performance? Are there any tweaks?
