I'm trying to adjust my sound hardware acceleration because I'm having issues with Tomb Raider. I'm a following the the guide on PC gaming wiki, but my control panel is not matching what they are talking about.

Could someone walk me through how to do this on Win 8?: (http://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Tomb_Raider_(2013)#Sound_issues_fix)
Link isn't cooperating, it may need to be copy/pasted.

MB is Gigabyte Z87-UDH4 (On board sound is Realtek ALC898)

Someone may well prove me wrong, but I believe that went away in Vista and hasn't come back. Among the numerous subsystem overhauls that were part of Vista, was the audio subsystem.

The instructions on that Wiki fail to mention they're likely for Windows XP only.
