i would stick with the integrated one if you got a cheap pair of speakers or headphones. Unless you are an audiophile then I would go for a good card. Some people will swear by the card they can hear more dynamic ranges a card will give you. But with what your doing you will be fine with onboard sound.

The integrated sound card is actually pretty nice. No reason to get an additional sound card, but if you choose to go for one, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16829132020&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-_-pla-_-NA-_-NA is a very nice sound card for cheap.

If you're going to buy one, go for the ASUS Xonar DG because it's better than most sound cards in it's range, even ones that more expensive. I mean, unless you use a nice set of headphones, and are a heavy music listener, you should be ok with integrated.
