MR> using old stuff just doesnt pan out.

My own experience is that reusing is fine, if and only if:
- Decent case (positive air flow, filters, not an oven).
- Good PSU (By the popular "psu tier list", tier 2 at worst).

I have found these two points make the difference between "hardware breaks, eventually" and "hardware doesn't break, ever".

My family (extended) is all using old parts, and so far (~10 year) no issues.
