ASUS ROG Strix Z390-E Gaming — SupremeFX S1220A onboard audio
This is the onboard audio implementation on ASUS ROG Strix Z390-E Gaming, not a standalone card. ASUS specifies SupremeFX S1220A; its analog stage and shielding are motherboard-specific.
Model-specific specifications

Compatibility & preservation
Keep board manual, driver and original rear-I/O map together. Codec alone does not define shielding, analog stage or jack switching. Photograph PCB revision and check HD Audio front-panel pinout before service.
- Photograph the model/revision label, connector panel, and installed/bundled accessories before service.
- Retain manufacturer manuals, original driver/firmware packages, and known-working configuration notes with the hardware.
- Use the specified signal level, connector wiring, and power requirements; connector fit alone does not prove compatibility.
