If you want a complete guide on components to buy, post in the PC buying guide section with your budget and requirements. Also mention the budget for speakers.

Now to your question, Almost all motherboards support 7.1 channel sound these days and the quality also is not bad. I would advise you to buy a sound card only if you are spending more than 10-12k on the speakers. Anything priced lower hardly gives the quality to use it with a sound card.
