Compatibility of PCIe card with Asus X99-A motherboard

Harryoo · Apr 4, 2015

Hi,

I have just ordered a Asus X99-A motherboard and want to know if the following PCI-E soundcard is compatible (I will only use it for the MIDI gameport; the latency of USB MIDI connections bug me):

Here is the ASUS manual link:

Any suggestions are welcome.

Best regards

Why would you buy a $7.50 sound card for a X99 mobo? The mobo sound will be better.

There's no make or model. And no specs. But for $7.50 it doesn't matter.

Thanks Karl for clarifying that for me.

Cheers Harry

The card is so I can mess about with MIDI with my old Yamaha keyboard. USB connections for MIDI are too slow, so when you press a key there is a lag in response, whereas the old gameport connections are instant. The sound on the X99-A is supposed to be great, so I won't be using the soundcard for audio.
