Hello, I would like to ask why newegg's desktop is so cheap, and it feels cheaper than assembling it by myself.

To be fair I am not sure whether you post this as spam FOR Newegg or rather, whether you are really curious.

The answer is in the "specs". Any time that a seller isn't listing what the name brand of the parts are, and include things like "manufacturer may vary" in relation to the GPU you can guess they are using the cheapest and lowest spec item they can get their hands on. On top of that, a popular style case that shows off lighted fans rather than concern about the temps for the components inside. Add to that a CPU that is about to be 2 generations behind and should be considered clearing house rather than cutting edge.

Certainly wouldn't go personally advocating for a system like this. You mention can't build it for this...given that you can't be sure of what parts are spec'ed and outside the GPU that is a complete mystery....nope.
