Does and Sound Card fit in any PC?

It'll work fine as you have both PCI & PCI-E free (assuming you don't have anything in those slots)

So it should be alright then? I'll make sure I don't have anything in these slots before I buy it. Thanks alot!

Yeah, you probably have a graphics slot in the x16 slot.

Just zoomed in, and its under that blue bar on the left hand side going vertically. My Graphics card is inserted into that blue bar on the left. Is that a problem?

Just studied the picture and compared it to mine:


The PCi and PCi E are both free, meaning the sound card I showed will work?

although, how big is your GPU? The sound card may block your GPUs fans from receiving necessity airflow.

As for the slots:

Show Hide PCI-E/PCI

• White Circle - PCI-E x16
• Purple Circle - PCI-E x1
• Red Circle - PCI

I think those are the slots and lanes, if I'm incorrect, I apologise.

My Graphics Card takes up the White Circle - PCI-E x16


Is that a problem? :/ I can get a picture of my actual mobo if its needed?
I can see the PCI-E x1 and the PCI slot, meaning it will fit?

@IRhyss; @scottish; this is the actual mobo :

Looks alright to me, looks like the sound card will probably fit.

It looks like your GPU is blocking your PCI-E slot, Maybe try looking for a PCI Sound card, unless Scott can suggest anything better

Okay, thank you
@scottish; can you suggest a sound card in the price range of £30ish?
