A soundcard will process the sound better and will give you many other features that an integrated chip won't. If you plan on doing audio editing, get a sound card, if you plan to play games, get a sound card, if you bought nice 5.1 SS Speakers, get a sound card, if you are deaf, get a soundcard. If none of these apply to you then you don't need a sound card.
