Sure there is....

 

EVGA - Products - EVGA NU Audio Card, 712-P1-AN01-KR, Lifelike Audio, PCIe, RGB LED, Designed with Audio Note (UK) - 712-P1-AN01-KR

 

That was the first hit for me from Google. There is a thread on this card, on this forum somewhere.

In the same price range there is another one:

But I would both not regard as audiophile, the target seem to be gaming.

 

I thought a real audiophile one maybe in the price range of 1k+.......

I think you might be surprised. I have a SB Z in my PC and is is great for the price and sounds good as wall. Don't let the gaming bit throw you off. The SB cards can do exclusive mode in JRiver, that I have loaded on my PC. But, I also have a TEAC UD-501 DAC, so that is my primary for music.
