computer from Dell with the exact same components

No you can't. You can buy something thats comparable in cost from dell but built with extremely inferior components. Sure, you'll get a decent processor and vid card, perhaps, but what about items like the motherboard, RAM, cooling, the case, HD, etc etc. They don't use quality items there, they use cheap products to increase their profit....
