Because some thing don't upgrade well individually.
Say you want a new processor. Unfortunately, that sometimes requires a new mainboard, and new RAM. The new mainboard might require a new power supply, and since the old PC case doesn't have front-panel USB 3.0 connectors, you're getting a new case, too.
While you're at it, you might as well upgrade your video card and hard drives, and at that point you've ended up with an almost completely new PC.
