Since when ? And do you have any link to confirm that ? If that' so i will sell it then cause they didnt release any driver for 8.1 over a year

Do you have any issues with your card that you need a new driver? 🙂

dead ? just dead ?
And what is the actual product ?

No official link... BUT, the proof is in the pudding so to speak... No drivers update for the latest a official windows, many unanswered bugs and issues. No stock for over a year on Amazon and Newegg. Pretty much answers that. Sold mine over a year ago due to lack of support and issues.

Well,... what? "The proof is in the pudding"? LOL.. never heard this...

Hard so say whats caused by bad support and what by an abadoned product.
No stock on amazon,... maybe in SC - I ordered my one from Amazon, 119 Euro... still 17 in Stock...

Driver updates are always a issue at asus... but everythings fine with 8.1 here...
I stoped buying ASUS mainboards 10 years ago because of bad support,... for driver download the next best server was in Taiwan with 2,5kbit/s.. -.-

The Phoebus is really ok when you have no issues... like me ^^
But when you got problems... support is pretty bad...

Don't expect an official driver from Asus for windows 10 any time soon, One of the mods said they were working on a new driver around a year ago, We have heard nothing, Typical Asus they take your money and when it comes to customer support they are among the worst I've dealt with and so far I've had experience with all the major companies.

If you haven't bought the card then my recommendation is, Don't.

Look at getting yourself an AMP/DAC combo for the same price, Will outperform the Phoebus easily.

Mine also working flawlessly. Non single issue with mic or anything else. Only no support at all.

I opened a ticket about this and the reply was that the product is not dead and will be receiving a driver. Problem here guys is that ASUS doesn't produce the device driver, C-MEDIA does. This is exactly the same as buying an ASUS graphics card with an NVIDIA or AMD chipset.

Moreover, the latest driver for Windows 8.1 (which doesn't support DRM playback) appears to work on Windows 10. Try the following;
1)Uninstall the Sound Card in device manager (not speakers) and select the option to delete existing drivers.
2)Uninstall Dolby Home Theater v4 and ASUS audio driver via control panel/Programs/Programs and Features/Uninstall a program
3)Reboot
4)Install the driver dated 22-Jan-2015
5)Reboot

As I said this driver does not work with DRM so no music downloaded from Groove Music, Film & TV, Netflix app, etc...
