The only worth re-usable things are the DDR3 8GB of RAM, possibly the i3 processor (this is the whole details of the i3 http://ark.intel.com/products/53426/Intel-Core-i3-2120-Processor-3M-Cache-3_30-GHz ) and that is literally it, possibly the optical drive, but thats all, so would that be more money possibly to play around with and should I reuse any of those things in replacement of the custom build you did?
