Great powerful sound. Good adjustments in software. Can seriously drive a good set of headphones.

For me it is better than a dac. Out of sight and sounds just as good to my ears.

For years I had gotten away from addon soundcards as onboard sound had been getting better and better. I have a Yamaha sub woofer and Bose speakers and I had been noticing with each newer build I was less and less happy with sound on my desktop system. Weak thin sound finally got to me so I bought this card and was reminded why I bought my sub woofer and speakers, the sound is so rich and full, better than I ever remember it sounding! Bas that can peel wallpaper off walls and rich full sound makes you feel you are right there at a concert hall!

32bit 384khz direct mode. No rgb. No molex. Power by the pci slot.

If you want the best sound card on the market then this is the one to buy. Sound blaster been around for a very long time and know what there doing. Easy to install, great software. My headphones have never sounded better! It supports dts for my home theater, which was a must have in a sound card for me. The evga nu or the nu pro does not support dts and is why i never gave it a chance. I upgraded from my old soundblaster z and i am very happy that a did.

- Easy setup - Great sound quality - Versatility - Makes games sound amazing

I brought this because my mother board sound card was dying and was unable to install an internal card due to my graphics card being mounted vertically in my case preventing access to the card slots. This little device was easy to connect and use having noticeably better sound quality than the original mother board audio before it developed issues.

-Works out-of-the-box on Windows and PS4 -Works with any 3.5mm jack device -Sounds better than my on-board sound card

Got this because it's compatible with Windows 98 Upon boot, Win 98 detected it, it installed a PCE-E to PCI bridge chip driver. I had to install the driver manually after, but that's just Windows 98 being bad.

Comes with low profile bracket. Sound is great compared to onboard sound component.


Downloaded the latest drivers from their website instead of using the CD (something you should generally do anyway), turned off the onboard sound in the bios, and the sound quality is far better than the onboard.



Supported in Windows 11. Great sound, better than on board audio for sure. Bygone audio technology... they don't make them like they used to.


Works perfect with my Raspberry Pi 4 + Libreelec. Been using it a few months now and not one issue.

Very clear sound. Audio acceleration really improves the ambience of games.

-Shipped in one piece and on-time -Makes my mic sound clearer/louder, which is what I was hoping it would do.
