The motherboard I am using is Asus - ROG STRIX B450-F GAMING ATX AM4 Motherboard and the CPU is AMD - Ryzen 7 2700X 3.7 GHz 8-Core Processor. I want to know if I should get a soundcard or not.

That motherboard comes with an 8-Channel High Definition Audio with these features below.
If you think that is not enough then you might want to look into a sound card.

  • High quality 120 dB SNR stereo playback output and 113 dB SNR recording input
  • SupremeFX Shielding Technology
  • Supports up to 32-Bit/192kHz playback *5
Audio Feature :
  • Optical S/PDIF out port(s) at back panel
  • Sonic Radar III
  • Sonic Studio III + Sonic Studio Link

Thank you. I am new to building a PC and wasn’t sure if I needed a soundcard because I found out today that my setup doesn’t have an integrated GPU.

Yes, the CPU you selected does not have integrated GPU.
Make sure to read the description of the components you are selecting, that way you won't be surprised about the features included with each component.
It will be helpful to watch a video about building a PC.
