Just recycle your old case, hard drive, disk drive, and peripherals (keyboard, mouse, etc). I recommend a brand new true-rated PSU because too many idiots use generic PSUs then wonder why their PCs conk out too early on. Generic PSUs (like what most PC bundles are sold with) give erratic current/voltage which can damage your components and cause them to fail prematurely. They are also less efficient (nowhere near 80% efficient which is the industry minimum).
