If i have a set of Z623s hooked up to my computer through the motherboard, what kind of a difference would i see if i bought a sound card?

You'd have a thinner wallet.

Seriously. The onboard sound is good enough, unless you are heavily into music production, and have the high end output devices to take advantage of it.

Unless you are spending a huge amount on an amazing sound system (at which point the money you spend on a sound card isn't going to make a huge difference) or doing music production, onboard sound will be fine. Although it depends on your motherboard.
