"Revived" PC

So I was wondering what you guys think of this build. It was just pre-built laying around that I found. I added the 660Ti, RAM, and it already had the 1TB drive in it. What else could be upgraded? I bought a x4 630 CPU. The OEM mobo can only handle the athlon quads or lower. Thanks guys! :)

some cheapo os ssd maybe, a disk drive would also be good so you can play old pc games on disks (these are commonly found at goodwill or at yard sales)

That's what I'm shooting for. Something just to run basic games like L4D2 or even TF2

Lower wattage PSU as well, chances of needing 750W are pretty low

Only chose the 750w cause it was for a good price
