Internal sound cards

Internal

— sound cards designed to be installed directly into the computer's system unit. Usually they look like characteristic boards with a set of connectors on one of the ends; during installation, this end is located in the opening on the rear wall of the system unit, and the board itself is fixed on the "motherboard" in the PCI or PCIe slot. Accordingly, internal models do not take up space in excess of what is already occupied by the system unit, and their functionality is very diverse, which allows you to choose an option for almost any need. At the same time, the installation and replacement of such boards is associated with a number of difficulties (in particular, it is necessary to turn off the PC and disassemble the case), and for some types of computer equipment (for example, for laptops and Apple devices) they are not suitable in principle. In addition, proximity to the electronic components of the system unit increases the level of interference, and to ensure high quality of work, it is necessary to resort to various technical tricks, which affects the price.
