  Well, ASM code will help you a lot in case you wish
to speed up some modules of your coding. I have made it and it
works, specially when you got to make some interface between the
software and hardware, name video card, name ports.- But, its not
so necessary that you can´t start with visual or plain C++, cause
it has (both) some kind of ASM within the compiler.-

  Some people says ASM is dead, but it is a "class" of programming
for itself.
