Help on Salvaging old PC

[spartans15]

Hey guys,

I am planning on building a new Gaming PC with the GTX 680; I currently have an Alienware X51, and I would like to salvage any viable parts from it so as to reduce costs where I can.

Here are the parts; I'm looking for feedback as to whether I can use any of these parts or if I need to start from scratch.


CPU: Intel Core I7-3770 @ 3.4 GHz

RAM: 2x Samsung 8GB PC3-12800 DDR3-1600MHz non-ECC Unbuffered CL11 240-Pin DIMM Dual Rank Memory Module Mfr P/N M378B1G73BH0-CK0

Hard Drive: Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM001 2TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache

The power supply is 330W (useless), the chassis is too small, and the Mobo is a crappy Alienware one.

thanks.
