Manw 5.1 PCIe Sound Card Bedroom Accent

SKU CH-YDMK-87X23

Adds 5.1 surround sound to a PC via PCI Express with a CMI8738 chip and low-profile bracket

  • Cinematic 5.1 surround sound from PCIe CMI8738 chip
  • 16-bit decoder enables 32/64-bit audio processing and playback
  • Low-profile bracket fits compact desktop cases easily
  • Five colour-coded ports for mic, line, front, rear and bass
  • Broad OS support from Windows 11 back to 98SE

Internal 5.1 PCIe Audio Card

This PCIe sound card adds 5.1 surround audio to a desktop PC through a CMI8738 chipset. It provides 16-bit multimedia decoding with 32-bit and 64-bit processing for recording and playback. The card supports DirectSound, A3D, EAX and HRTF 3D tone technologies. A low-profile bracket is included for small-form-factor cases.

Upgraders with legacy operating systems

The card suits builders who need multichannel audio on Windows 11, 10, 8, 7, Vista, XP, Server 2003 to 2008, 2000, ME or 98 SE. It is not for systems that lack a free PCIe slot. Buyers who require digital S/PDIF or USB audio interfaces should look at something else.

CMI8738 chipset with analogue 5.1 output

The CMI8738 chip drives five analogue jacks coloured for microphone, line in, front, rear and bass or centre channels. Driver installation may require disabling the onboard audio device in Device Manager. A driver download link is referenced on the supplier CD if the optical drive is unavailable.
