This is the AMD's reply to my ticket:

For me, the solution was the optical toslink cable with my sound blaster Z. it sounds amazing and no problems with audio delay. 

I wish AMD paid for my old sound blaster which was the savior of the day.

That's basically the same reply I received from AMD, they told me to use DDU and do clean windows boot. Except, this is a brand new system and a fresh install of windows with nothing on it but basic drivers and a few games. I'm trying to push them to allow me to speak with someone at AMD as they are likely just 3rd party tech support. I'm not sure why they are so determined to keep their head in the sand about this issue.

I'm probably going to do the optical cable as well but I really don't want to since it's such a dated and limited connection that hasn't been updated in decades. Plus I'd have to use the onboard audio, I do have a SB Zx but it would cover up one of the fans on the graphics card so I don't really want to use it.

Funny side note, looks like windows tried to update the drivers last night but ended up installing a 19 version driver instead, gj windows.

What mobo do you have ? 

it's weird that you don't have any other pci-e slot.

It's the Asus x570 tuf, but I have the MSI 5700xt gaming x which is quite thick and the fans are just above the bottom pci-e slot.
