Kaby Lake?

FWIW, That's a bridged PCI slot.

Echo PCI audio interfaces are notorious for *not* working in bridged PCI slots.

In fact, we've never seen an Echo card work in any motherboard with bridged PCI slots.

There are folks here successfully using an outboard PCIe to PCI adapter with the Echo cards.

IMO, The OP would be much better off getting a quality Z370/Z390 motherboard (Coffee Lake CPU)... and getting the outboard PCIe to PCI adapter that's known to work.

Jim, my current mobo has a bridged PCI and it works smooth as silk, no glitches at all!

If you're running a B75 chipset motherboard, it has native PCI (not bridged).

The Echo cards don't cope well with bridged PCI slots.

Well, listed in Device Manager /  System Devices is PCI to PCI Bridge. What is that?

I'm running the B75 chipset (Asus P8B75-V) for exactly the same reason. Not only is it a native PCI, but it also supports all the voltages. 

It's one of the few motherboards that still supports the Yamaha DS2416 cards.

To my knowledge, no current generation motherboard has native PCI slots.

The OP's best course of action is to get a quality Z370/Z390 motherboard... and use the outboard PCIe to PCI adapter that several here have working with Echo cards.  It's a zero risk choice.

FWIW, You really don't want to let 15 year old hardware determine motherboard choice.

Jim, how 'bout this?

Wow! My Yamaha SW1000XG wouldn't work with the Intel 900 series chipsets.

Those old M-Audio cards still work.
