You don't need one. 2.1s like these have their own amplifiers built in. You'll also want to get something that's not garbage, like this:

I had this question years ago, the answer is NO. you do not need a sound card, in fact, you could use a pair of headphones if you wanted (i wouldn't recommend that ) and it'd still work

a good sound card is for somebody who is going to be using high quality audio devices such as a 7.1 surround system.
