Can someone give me a link from VIA site (http://www.via.com.tw/en/products/audio/)
for latest audio drivers?There are too many there and i dont know whats going on ;d (Because there might be a problem in diablo performance)

It seems there is no official driver for Win 8.1 on VIA's page too (http://download.viatech.com/en/support/driversSelect.jsp). But there is for Win 8.0 so you can try that (you should download it from Gigabyte's site).

According to information on this site: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/windows-8/tp/windows-8-drivers.02.htm

VIA has both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 8 drivers for the majority of their chipsets but according their Windows 8 driver FAQ here, the following audio chipsets should be supported by native Windows 8 drivers and will not receive further updates: VT1708, VT1708A, VT1612A, VT1613, VT1616/B, VT1617/A, VT1618, VT82C686A/B, VT8231, VT8233/AC, VT8235 & VT8237/R, and VT8251.

I have no idea which you have, but this might be the case (I presume sound is working normally, so no special drivers are needed nor available for Windows 8.1).
