Gigabyte B650M C Installation guide

  • Hello! I've reviewed the user manual for the Z590 Audio Input and Output. This document provides guidance on configuring audio settings for various speaker setups, S/PDIF output, stereo mix, and utilizing the voice recorder. I'm ready to assist you with any questions you might have about the audio configuration process.

    How to enable Stereo Mix?
    How do I open the Voice Recorder?
