Agreed. I still say put family with the bottom budget one. Most people want a simple, reliable PC for home, while they are apt to buy their college/high school age children a more powerful one (since young kids play so many games/etc [as a generalization] )

I do like the 'premium' idea with the high-end though. How about "Premium Blend - for power users"?

Well, if you advertise/post with a name like "Freakin Powerful Computers" you won't get any business at all. You need something professional.

Power Hungry is a bit OTT.

Ok i've optd for

Dark Horse Desktop

It's got that little added punch with it's 9600GSO so it make it a dark horse


Silver Lighting Shadow Desktop

The added lighting spike of the HD4850 will impress the user

Pro Power Desktop

It's overclocked Processor will have the end user happy as larry

What do you think OCN

You're using Word for a leaflet? Try Scribus. It's free. It offers a lot more options for creativity. And it will convert to PDF with a click of a button. I'd bet you can come up with something that is more eye-catching using Scribus.

Definately much better. Maybe just Silver Shadow desktop. Anything that takes more than 2 syllables to pronounce isn't worth saying, right?

If that's your top of the line, enthusiast-level machine I would put a GTX280 in there as well as something better then the Q6600. That's more of a standard gamers build to me.

Is there even a market for pre-overclocked computers? If your charging a little extra for the time you spent OC'ing the rig, that a buyer could potentially do himself, you might be better off throwing in a better CPU and keeping it at stock.
