No Electronics - Internals

I've been waiting for a solution for a year now. anyway it got worse. Sounds way better (IF WORKING PROPERLY*) than even "high-end" on-board audio. +75DKP Microphone problems, a lot of noise goes through the microphone which is quite funny, even if I unplug the microphone it keeps working, sound card -50 DKPStatic sometimes through the headset, I have no idea why, but sometimes there is just a lot of static . through. Sound Card -50DKP Causes game crashes on AMD and INTEL systems (2 different cards but same model), but this seems to have been fixed in the latest update. (possibly -100DKP) I wanted to blame the link box so I ordered some good quality 3.5mm KINPS extension cables to plug directly into the sound card, but guess what. it didn't fix it, it was sort of the final blow for me to get sick of it. I checked all the settings, yesterday that wasn't the case, but the day before yesterday it probably was. (intermittent position, -200DKP). Did I mention you can get an Xbox One S with a 4k Blu-ray player for around the price of this sound card? Wow. I strive for the top of the sound and unfortunately I'm left with only partially working junk and I think I loved ASUS. Much luck.
