I'm certain all the parts in that HP won't fit in a normal tower. The hard drive is salvageable but as for everything else it looks all non-standard meaning it wont fit in a normal case.

the ram is DDR3 you would want to use DDR4 in a new system, also make sure the hard drive is just an addition to what the new computer already has otherwise you will need to wipe it first and install new windows OS, the HP you linked is an AIO so it doesnt have a graphics card just Integrated AMD Radeon R2 Graphics

You might be able to fit it in an Office tower, it depends on how you modify it to work.

Yes it should be as long as its not soldered to the board, It may be So-dimm though. Also, if your going to build a new PC go with standard parts not non-standard stuff from dell or HP
