Yeah my gaming pc is from 2014 and runs modern shit fine. Well did, my GPU seems to have packed it in over the weekend. So I'm on the verge of buying a entire new machine. Ten years is pretty good

If case, power supply and storage are still okay, just reuse them and save a not insignificant amount of money.

Yeah that's the plan, the case is huge but full of water cooling etc

You might end up like me one day, with a case that's over 20 years old and has seen many hardware upgrades. I never removed the Athlon 64 sticker on mine...
