Good sound card for listeners?

I recently put money down on this set of speakers for listening, and it struck me that I was still using on-board audio.

I'm not a musician in any sense of the word, but I would like to put at least some money towards having a better listening experience for the remixes here and just in general on my desktop computer.

I did visit the sound card thread that was geared more towards people producing music, and I did some searching around on my own... the card I'm looking at as a result of that is the ASUS Xonar DX.

I am running Win7 64-bit, and I am somewhat nervous about compatibility, but I've read at least one review that the aforementioned card runs on XP 64-bit.

Could I get some pointers or suggestions? Am I at least looking in the right direction here?

Okay, so something like this? I think I misunderstood the difference between sound cards and interfaces reading that thread from earlier.

And I have no idea where to start when it comes to mixers.

EDIT: I just read that FAQ on computer hardware and that helped somewhat.
