Yeah I would have just built it out using the existing box.
The case is not a wear item and will last forever.
Case fans go but they are $5 and 5 minutes to replace.
Hard drives are a wear item and require replacing. I have some drives I've had forever and also new ones that blew up, one literally fried, smoke and all on 1st power up.
CD / DVD drives typically last a long time but still dirt cheap to replace and takes 5 minutes.
PSU, same as hard drives, some last, some don't but end of day they are a replacement item.
Replacing CPU / MOBO is still OP's best bang for the buck option.
