Priority Motherboard Size ( Can still fit )
Low Powered PSU

No setting in the BIOS to disable the Intel graphics attached to the motherboard

4. Return of investment (ROI) It’s old, so expecting to make loads of money without scamming someone is low. (always tell people when selling, its an old dell pc in a new case)
