EVGA 712-P1-AN01-KR Nu Audio Card PCIe RGB LED

The EVGA Nu Audio Card (712-P1-AN01-KR) is a PCIe internal sound card developed in partnership with Audio Note (UK), a company with decades of experience in high-end audio component design. This collaboration extends to the selection of audio-grade capacitors, resistors, and op-amps used on the card, all chosen to minimize noise and distortion in the analog output stage. The result is a noticeably cleaner and more detailed audio signal compared to the integrated audio found on even high-end motherboards, where shared PCB traces and power delivery introduce interference that degrades sound quality.

A standout feature is native DSD audio support up to x256, which allows the card to play DSD-encoded music files in their original format without converting to PCM first — preserving the characteristics of the recording as intended. The socketed, switchable op-amps give users the ability to physically swap components to adjust the tonal character of the output, a level of customization rarely found outside dedicated audiophile equipment. The ambient RGB lighting runs on a separate circuit from the audio path, so it adds visual customization to your PC build without compromising signal integrity. For desktop users who want measurably better audio without an external DAC setup, the Nu Audio Card delivers a purpose-built solution inside the PC itself.
