Welcome to the PC Profiles Discussion Forum.

As far as sound quality is concerned, you will notice very little difference between onboard sound and a PCI sound card. Usually the quality of the music files are a much bigger factor.

If onboard sound is not an option or you still want to purchase a PCI sound card, we'll need to know your current setup (how many PCI slots free), etc. Also, how much are you planning on spending, and where will you be buying from?

Any modern SoundBlaster will do just fine, but you can expect to spend around $50 on a quality card.

If you haven't already bought something then consider this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/EDIMENSIONAL-AUDIO-FX-PRO-5-1-HEADPHONES-NEW_W0QQitemZ190165399061QQihZ009QQcategoryZ80183QQcmdZViewItem

I have these and they are the best headsets I have ever owned. It adds feel to games too.
