Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

I still think it's safer to buy an external USB sound, because. You can also connect a laptop and does not take up space in the case. For this money you can buy Sound Blaster X7.
And then of course I have a question . why is the Sound Blaster X7 worse ? so think.
In order to mechanically switch the sound in the headphones and speakers, press for 2 seconds and release the volume knob.
Turn off the backlight - hold for 4 seconds and release.
Surround sound in headphones works well. Here you can kill two birds with one stone - games and music. (compared to Logitech G 933 7.1) That is, the headphones are automatically defined in the system as 5.1.
Requires additional 6pin from the power supply.

Pros

good sound card. The sound in the headphones is normal. a bunch of settings.

Cons

I had to slightly melt (file) the decorative plate on the motherboard (MSI z370 M5) because the card could not be inserted. And swapping with a video card is also not an option. only the top port works PSI X16. But this is not a sound problem, but a motherboard problem.
