This is a major hardware design problem (CS42528 DAC implementation) and Outlaw try to work around by a software fix to avoid a costly recall.

I think the software team did a great job but nothing they can do without a hardware modification.

I decide to keep my 970 and I will not expect any fix just by a firmware upgrade any time in the future.

The audio bug will live with the 1070/970 until this porduct will be discontinued.
