I would suggest u to upgrade ur speaker first to 5.1 then to get a sound card if ur budget permits. I am assuming ur onboard audio supports 6 channel audio as u have not posted ur PC specs

Any 5.1 card could work as 2.1 nd nowadays no 2.1 cards are available. Also U can't notice the difference in sound on value creative 2.1 speakers like inspire nd SBS. It should be min of a 5.1 .

For your 2.1 speakers, the onboard 5.1 soundcard should be sufficient... With these two, mostly the speakers will be the performance bottleneck. If you want to improve the quality of sound from the set, you should consider upgrading the speakers before purchasing soundcard.
