I really would love to see both the sound card and keyboard. I do not use sound cards, but I will be looking at the keyboard if it happens.

It's the other way around for me. I never purchase Classified or KingPin cards, the built-in evbot would be worthless to me. I already have a Corsair K70 Blue LED mechanical keyboard. If i get a new mechanical keyboard, it will probably be Corsair K70 RGB Lux version.

I was looking at this as well. I currently have a Creative Soundblaster ZXR and was wondering if this would be an upgrade.

I wouldn't make any decisions yet. By the time EVGA launch a sound card, if they do, it could be a whole different chipset running it and totally different features available to it. So until they say yes, THIS is what were putting out, or someone else gets a confirmation and prints it in tech news, I wouldn't put too much thought into it, especially since the last we heard of it was CES 2016. Your ZXR card is a very good consumer grade card so evga would really have to do there homework to make something better than that and competitively priced at that price level. My guess is that they will target the high end of the mid tier consumer cards so the prices stay lower, they can cram a bunch of decent tech on the pcb and still have it sound/perform great for that tier at a competitive price. So most likely there new card wont be better than your ZXR, imo, but we wont know for sure until we get some def specs, some reviews and some actual forum members that own one and could compare it.

My onboard is fine for me....*shrug* I thought about getting a new sound card, but at my age (in my 50s), and since I've blasted music since I was about 14, I doubt I could hear any difference at all ;)

Awesome. Thanks! Think I'll just stick with my current ZXR and see how it stacks up when EVGA releases their card. I appreciate the info. feeling pretty good about my ZXR now. ^_^

What happened to this??
What the snap-crackle-pop EVGA? This thing was announced ages ago and we've never heard anything of it since.. 
I was wondering the same thing  Hope it comes out sometime this year

I don't think will see evga sound cards or dac released this year. My guess is Q2 of 2017 at the earliest.

Whoa... this is new to me.
This is kind of a sketchy area to get into. I'm all about discreet sound cards, but if they plan to do it, do it right. Go for upper tier and not middle ground.
I have a Sounblaster Zx. While I am impressed with the sounds it can produce, Im once again reminded why I originally abandoned Creative. Drivers.

If EVGA gets into sound, they have my vote. I'm not really digging what Asus has to offer or even sound blaster, and Sound blaster is purely over priced as it is.
