I am a new windows user. I have installed windows on my new computer. But I am encountering a problem with my audio system. The audio is not clear. Even in the headset, the audio is not clear. What is the problem is working behind it? I searched on the google. And got a information that for the audio driver's problem the sound system may be damaged. I.m seeing here is Installed Realtek HD audio driver in my computer. Is this official driver? How can I clear my sound on my computer?

    it depends upon  quality of  audio chip embedded on the motherboard by the manufacturer,

    the developed customized audio driver from the device manufacturer,

    the quality on the high power speakers .

    according to me  Realtek hd audio is  best

    try this  audio driver

    latest realtek audio driver direct downloading link

    Hi Mehrab

    The best Audio driver is the one designed to run on your PC, you cannot just download some other driver, it will not install into your system .. .

    Do you know the actual Audio device that is on your PC, did your PC come with Reatek Audio pre-installed?

    What is the Make and exact Model No. of your PC/Laptop?

    The 'best' audio driver is generally the one provided by the mfg of your motherboard if using a desktop PC, or the mfg of your laptop.

    Audio drivers don't get many updates, so as long as the driver is a dedicated Win10 driver it shouldn't matter if it's old.

    The driver provided by Realtek on their web site is a generic driver and is not always suitable, as Realtek point out on their download page.

    Assuming the correct Realtek driver is installed and you have issues with the audio that cannot be rectified by the options

    in the Realtek HD Audio Manager software, your outputs (if using external speakers), speakers, or the audio chip may be faulty.
