The motherboard had nothing but the case usually had a speaker just to make a “beep” sound. I had to play Wolfenstein with that shit because my dad didn’t have a sound blaster until he also got a CD-ROM drive to play Doom since he could only find a copy on CD and not floppy disk.
And even now, a SoundBlaster32 is better than the in-built audio stuff motherboards do have. Though it’s not worth getting one just for games.
If you want good sound, buy an external usb DAC. It will be away from all electro magnetic interference and will be way better than any consumer stuff.
Lol how do you think they get to that front panel?
I mean sure go ahead and shield this and that (and still get em interference in the DAC card because it’s hooked up to the friggin PCI express bus on the motherboard) instead of using a simple USB cable.

Modern built-in DACs are insulated well enough for good sound. You only want to spend money on an external one if you want excellent sound.
Except your analog cables going from your PC?
Which should be shielded for any decent sound equipment. Also they come from the front panel, away from major interference sources.

You’re delusional.
