cheap prebuilt computers are useless to upgrade. but great gaming comps are money savers to buy that new 200 dollar vid card. rather then buy a whole new 2k computer again.
computer hardware doubles in power or whatever that was every 2 years. making cheap computers stuff quick.
so if you buy "high end" gaming parts for that extra money, they last twice as long to the compared outdated stuff. that's where your money is saved.

Can be but "cheap" is rarely synonymous with "good".
