Hey diabloII,
I do agree with you on the tampering with overclocked settings topic. It will be considered. As far as the goodies offerings, that has come to mind before.

Gaming system comes with free or discount off a game of your choice, multimedia pc's comes with a 2-3 dvd's etc.

The company will offer as much as they can, but ofcourse they are limited due to being on a small scale. Once they grow, the offers will as well. I appreciate your feedback and welcome anything you'd like to throw. Also.. if anyone can comment one thing they like or dislike about another manufacturer(alienware,falcon, etc), that would be helpful as well.

Ex: I personally think its rediculous that Alienware charges money for thier support CD!

Thanks guys!

for hard drives, use Seagate or Western Digital. let users choose which one.

let them choose from a variety of LCD or CRT monitors, Sony and BenQ are good companies

what country do you live in anyway?

themeXP is a nice and free program (it does take up resources though)

oh, and advertisement is very important

You want to really help people out? Have Av and firewalls already installed... and not Norton or McAfee, which are useless.

AVG and Avast are both good. Try striking up a diologue with a few of the other AV companies, like Trendmicro or Computer Associates, and see if you can get a good deal for putting their software on your systems (well, giving the options).

Good spyware removers would be a good idea as well.

Install a decent selection of wallpapers for desktops. The ones that come with Windows are well worn and tired. Several nature shots, weather shots, space shots, cool graphics. Check out http://customize.org/ for a few thousand cool examples of what can be done/offered.

Tech support needs to be available and knowledgable. When something goes wrong, they need to be able to contact someone NOW, and that someone needs to know the answer NOW. Email, IM, chat, and phone are good options, as is a good website with FAQ and boilerplates for most common problems.

Make sure that you are putting out good quality. Nothing screams "incompetent" louder than to receive a computer and parts have fallen off/out of it in transit.

^AGREED! There are already a lot of company's offering the same product you are right? The way you seperate yourself is through the service aspect.

One other thing that I think is a good idea. Gamepc.com offers the option to just send the parts and let the customer assemble themselves. I think that is a cool option.
