Some of the key specifications include XMOS xCore-200 Audio DSP with native DSP support, 2-channel analog and 5.1-channel digital output, dedicated headphone amp, and premium components like AKM AK4493 DAC, AKM AK5572 ADC, ADI OP275 and ADI AD8056 OP-AMPs, as well as WIMA, Audio Note (UK) and Nichicon capacitors, and TI TPS7A47/TPS7A33 power regulators. Interface list includes Line Out, Headphones, Line In, Mic In, and S/PDIF Out interfaces.

The EVGA NU Audio card uses a standard single-slot card design with PCIe x1 Gen2 interface and single SATA for power, as well as comes with 10-mode RGB lighting.
