That "device' probably isn't your sound card. What specific ASUS card is it anyways? More than likely it either the MBs two ASMedia SATA-III ports or the MBs two ASMedia USB 3.0 ports waiting on a driver installation from you. ASUS Xonar DGX PCI-E GX2.5 Audio Engine Sound Card That's the pci slot its in. I am looking at the little map/picture in the bios. its the top pci slot. Not the x16 but the smaller one. I'll be damned. It has an ASMedia ASM1083 PCIe Bridge Chip on it. What driver(s) are you using the BETA ones or the non-BETA drivers ASUS has posted? https://www.asus.com/us/Sound-Cards/Xonar_DGX/HelpDesk_Download/

Or maybe more to the point, other than in the BIOS as is, in Device Manager does it show up properly, and, does it perform as expected?
