You should be happy with them. They're a great sounding headset considering the price. If you ever get the chance try out the Turtle Beach DSS 2. Made an even bigger difference in sound quality for me, when moving from an Asus Xonar DX which is already an excellent card.

No, so long as you have an fibre optic port on your mainboard it plugs into that, with a USB cable to provide power to it. You headphones plug into the DSS2.
It's actually just a digital analog convertor + DSS effects so it's much more akin to a home theatre reciever than a sound card in that sense. While you can run from a sound card into it I'd recommend against it as you'd be negating the sound quality advantage you'd otherwise.

How do the turtle beach compare to the Corsair vengeance?

Not too sure, they compare very favorably to my old Plantronics Gamecon headset, and pretty much on par with some philips headphones I have. Senheiser is better though they're really headphones and in an entirely different price bracket.
The Turtle Beach P11's are by far and away the best I've ever heard from around $60 price bracket. Everyone who's used them comments on how clear everything is. The separate chat and game volume controls on the headset come in handy
