Start again or re-use some bits?

[Niffy]

Hi All;

I have a Q6600 based PC that is sadly past its best. Some bits of it might be re-usabel - an Antec case, Corsair HX520W Modular Power Supply, 1Tb Hard disk and DVD Rom perhaps?

Since it's all several years old I am wondering if trying to re-use these bits will be more trouble than it's worth and I might as well retire the whole lot?

I have a budget of around £1,000 - I will need a new Monitor but have a mouse, Keyboard and Windows 7 (with upgrade to 10).

Use will be Games such as Total War, MMO games, GTA plus some newer games I hope!

The screen will be sat on my desk so Imagine 24" will be more than sufficient. Any overclocking will be 'light'.

I look forward to your recommendations on the best way forwards

Ok thanks, I am edging towards a complete rebuild, so everything except Windows - I may as well get a new mouse and Keyboard... budget is the same £1000..

I assume I can get a pretty decent set up for that?
