I've just rebuilt my system, clean install of Win8 then upgraded to 8.1. I installed these drivers for my Vengeance 1500 and they are now almost unusable, even at 0 (yes 0!) volume I can hear sound clearly. With the volume at position 2 (the next position) the level of output is getting uncomfortable when watching you tube videos. This is with the source type set to 7.1 (which is what I use most of the time for gaming), with the source set to 2.0 position 2 on the volume control is just about ok and 4 is uncomfortable.
Gaming isn't much better.
This is an absolute joke, who is QAing these drivers? They were bad before (also Win8 upgraded to 8.1) with a maximum usable position of maybe 16 or so, but to be able to hear sounds clearly when muted is appalling
