Hey,
My old computer died recently and I have to build a new one, however I have a pretty limited budget (800$ canadian or so).
I still have a GTX660 in good condition from my old build and the HDD is also fine.
I was looking into something like http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/BBX9NN but I would remove the GPU and HDD to use mines.

This, however, comes at 950$, which is around 100-150$ more than I wanted. Is it possible to reduce the cost without compromising too much on the performance or do you recommend spending the additional money (maybe better quality/price at that range)? Is it even a good idea to keep the GTX660?
Thanks for the help.
