DVI / HDMI would enhance a little, because VGA cable serve "analog" signal, DVI / HDMI cable serve "digital" signal. But the different is very small. If your current on-board graphic card can play the 1080p mkv files smoothly, you don't really need a new graphic card. But if you really want one, any current generation Nvidia card would be fine. For sound card, if your on-board sound didn't come with any optical connection, you can get a sound blaster card, USB version is also ok. I am using this one http://us.store.creative.com/Sound-Blaster-XFi-Surround-5.1/M/B0017QQQAE.htm Roland, Thanks for your comment!
