Thank you for taking the time I'm sure a quick internet search would gotten me closer but I figured I'd ask an expert, at the end of the day the answer is no.
You can reduce it and use a dedicated sound card. There are also audio interfaces and workstations. Most frequently, I just use an amp and good mic(s) and keep the computer's volume turned down. There's always going to be some latency in the system. It's just a fundamental nature of the universe. It can be reduced, but never eliminated. Even when you look in the mirror, you're seeing what was and not what is.
You have a point, Like a PCI sound card? Usb sound card?
Which ever is fastest for your computer. These days, I seem to recall that bus speeds are higher for USB 3.0 than they are for PCI.
PCIe is even faster. I bought an obscenely priced PCIe card and it did not help - it turned out that I needed the link I shared with you and my original card was not actually the problem. Rather than research, I just bought a new card.
Yes, I sometimes do stupid shit.
But, it's nice. Most any dedicated card seems to be adequate. I don't get any huge benefit from my expensive card.
I should probably add that I've only been recording myself for less than three years, more or less. I never really had any interest in recording myself and when I was recorded it was done by someone else - often a sound engineer.
This is NOT my domain and I'd absolutely encourage you to do some independent research - and then tell me what you learned, 'cause I don't know as much about this subject as I should. I do not write the recording articles for my site. Those are guest articles.
