What are the benefits of sound cards are and what they can do to enhance my PC gaming experience?

How much would it cost to get a sound card that is good and how much money is worth investing into them?

Please link any sound cards that you talk about.

All motherboards have on board sound these days.
Very few people would get benefit from a sound card.
The speakers or head phones you use will have a much bigger impact on the sound you hear.

USB headphones don't make use of on board sound or a sound card at all.
Same is true if your sound comes from a HDMI cable connected to your video card.
The sound device in these cases is the headphones or video card.

If you do connect speakers or headphones to the audio output on your motherboard, you would have to use very good speakers or headphones before you could notice any difference a sound card could make.
