Yes. My latest mobo has the pins for a POST speaker, but didn't actually come with one. Installed it though and it works.

Now I'm wondering if my board supports one. I think it'd be cool if my big fancy custom cooling loop gaming build sounded like it's from the early 90s.

Most boards still do. I have a couple x570 boards lying around that do, and my friend just got an x670e board that has one. They all have the setting in the BIOS for the POST beep as well, and you can set it up in your OS to beep at a specific frequency/duration for notifications.

That's exactly what I have! An X570-A-PRO. We'll see, haven't gotten around to messing with this.

I didn't even bother checking on the last box I built. I know I've got at least one proper speaker and one piezo in a crate somewhere.
