Topic: Used soundcard?

I was researhing about better soundcards, from ones that works fine for latency using ASIO4ALL, to models with native ASIO (more costy).

Actual soundblater in general have native ASIO. But I found soundblaster are always pricy in my country.     

But today I found many used soundblaster models  for sale, some 7.1, with very good prices, but I couldn't find the year it was produced or if they have native ASIO, since maybe older models maybe not have ASIO as often as today (I know little about soundcards).

So... where I can type a given model of soundcard, to get information about the features or if it have a good native ASIO?
And also where get ASIO for Download, in case the used soundcard no longer have the CD of installation

Be careful, this soundcard seems to be pci, perhaps your PC does not have this old conector, nowadays the most common is pci express. On windows 10 windows audio exclusive mode works very well.
