i really love all the builds you guys suggested.. are these builds future proof? Like in 4-5 years are we be able to upgrade stuff like video card? One last thing can someone suggest a good cd rom cd burner and a sound card for these builds? Thanks.

can't say for 4-5 years but for 3 years at least if everything goes well. why do you need sound card? are you in music industry?
if not then on board sound card will be enough. For GPU it will also last for more than 2 years..it's a strong build and it will last for more than 2 years or may be 3-4 years depends on how industry change.
