Please go ahead and share a screenshot of building this up with 7700x for less.

Yeah, sure. This is without the motherboard, cooler, case, OS, connectivity options, and keyboard and mouse. All those added, this certainly won't be cheaper than this. Let's see how put it together for less than $1369.

oh i forgot i got a peerless assassin on amazon for like 35$

also im reading you can't upgrade the 8700f to a better cpu, that it's soldered on.
that mouse and keyboard is e-waste

I stopped reading at refurbished 7700X. No sense in comparing or debating over a new pre-built device with something built from refurbished components. Also, you have not added any cooler, which this setup requires, which would probably bring the price to $1400; and like I said, if you add a new 7700x it will be around, or above, $1500. Nowhere in your comment did you suggest it being less with refurbished components.

you are correct, i didnt suggest it, you assumed it. I already posted a superb cooler at 35$.

but the real story here is this prebuilt has a soldered on gimped mobile cpu, so its actually even worse. it's pcie 4x8 configuration will bottleneck future gpus

even the 120$ 7500f outperforms the 8700f in gaming, and thats a new price, so theres still no reason to buy this piece of e-waste
