On the lens is the ASUS Xonar Essence sound card

A new model will be added to the Xonar sound card family soon.

Based on the photo, we can say the following about the Xonar Essence: PCI Express x1 interface, the power supply must be included to satisfy its energy hunger (Molex connector), and the card also has a so-called EMI Shield - this special protection plate is designed to reduce interference. So far, no specifics have been leaked regarding the distribution of the sound card operating with a signal-to-noise ratio of 124 dB, so it is not even known when and how much will be available on the shelves of specialty stores.
