Worth upgrades? What should I look for?

I found a super cheap PC online and am wondering if the guts are worth it, I'm new to PC building and have a weak budget do to recent disability. I understand newer chips will probably be a complete rebuild? It's 50 bucks

Looks like an aftermarket Acer case, it won't let me post photos.

Here is the description:

Used HP Envy PC. Comes with case, fans, oem motherboard, corsair 650 w power supply, 16 gb ram, Intel i5 5820k. No ssd or graphics included. Price is for everything.

With moniter and keyboard.

Those parts suck, but for 50 bucks? Maybe you can take the psu, ram, and peripherals

TarynFyre@reddit (OP)

Yeah, I'm wondering is the case is even usable?

Probably, but if its matx youll need a likewise mobo. If it has super bad airflow, you can drill holes in it

Yeah, the mobo looks small for the case, good airflow, 6 fans in it. Glass side gaming case. I figure a new case alone will be $50 at cheapest. Thanks!
