rseiler Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Wait, the FTP ones were "WHQL betas"?! I didn't know there was any such thing, as that sounds like an oxymoron. Why would WHQL get involved with betas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHQL only act as a digital signature now, not like in the past that was a synonym of STABLE, now WHQL can be used for any driver, even hotfixes that are basically BETAS.

steven36 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I remember being on older versions of windows and downloading Realtek drivers causing it too break things mostly all updates for these are for is support for new soundcards and compatibility for the latest OS the 1st time I installed Windows 10 it installed Realtek drivers When I installed RS1 it gave me the generic driver . Too me since i had a working driver since the end of July 2016 there 3 months late for me to worry about it now i will cross that bridge again when I clean install windows sound working right is very important to me to be botching it up .

banned Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I agree. Microsoft will certify just about anything for WHQL, as long as it passes the driver verifier. The term is nearly irrelevant. Why would WHQL get involved with betas? Microsoft will sign anything that gets submitted. Whether or not the driver is considered beta is up to Realtek.

steven36 Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Microsoft update catalog always have newer drivers than what Realtek has at there site so here is a topic that has been posting the latest drivers since 11 May 2015 from Microsoft The so called stable driver from Realtek Microsoft had it since November 29th 2016 x64 version. http://www.tenforums.com/drivers-hardware/5993-latest-realtek-hd-audio-driver-version.html?s=4d37e5e6d82d070056f4041ebb392873 With Realtek's track record there all betas if you ask me none has really been tested people have had a lot problems with so called stable versions in the past so playing the beta vs stable card is Irrelevant.

jvidal Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 And the drivers @realtek's FTP were not considered beta. When they were beta or "WHQL test", the name of the zip file usually indicated so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiliarou Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Typical realtek shit... NO freaking changelog, NO proper website and dl servers, practicaly NO QA and test, a huge black box supposed to improve sound but it's basically a super plain shitty driver...
