I'm making a PC for church and it just needs to be able to run PowerPoint, some other lyrics software, play music, and play videos. The sound needs to sound nice coming from the large speakers. Here's what I got so far...

Is it good? Critiques on sound card? Do I need a graphics card?
*Edit* I also have one issue, will playing audio and recording audio have any issues...with the last setup (laptop) we had trouble with this and received horrible feedback. Do we need a second card for recording the audio in addition to the one playing audio?
