Yeah shitty built-in soundcards were an issue in like 2010 at the latest. Unless you're mixing music for a living, there's not any reason to buy a dedicated soundcard anymore.
The one thing I can see is if you need some 27.1 audio format or S/PDIF out. I have a 10-metre optical cable between my PC and my stereo and a lot of the cheapest mainboards don't have optical out.
