I'm looking to upgrade my old desktop that I haven't used in a long time.
These are the components that I have:

What components am I able to still use? I was thinking:
1) Keep: case, HDD drive, dvd drive
2) Replace: mobo, gpu, cpu, and ram
3) Not sure if I can still use the PSU?
I want to keep whatever is still compatible with newer parts and upgrade the PC with better budget parts. This PC will only be used to play Diablo 3 and Heroes of Newerth at high settings.
Recommendations for budget, new parts will be appreciated as well.
Thanks!
