Given the above is a quote from the jobs section of this very site, why has the OP not had his nuts chewed yet for effectively being a competitor???

And another thing, given that I've been screwing about with computers & soldering etc since the early 80's if I honestly thought I could make a decent wage from building the things do you think I'd drive a truck for a living?

That is why I think the OP is full of it to be blunt (how unlike me! :o ) ;)

depends on the systems and profit margin which, if the OPs head is screwed on is likely to come from the installation/support/tech consulting & advice.

for example (and this is the only one I could think of outside which would warrant such dollar dollar pay) if the business is building high end home media PCs and servers capable of gaming, streaming films & music round the house and you are including the audio and visual system so hi end 50" TVs or full home theatres then the pay could be pretty high. The sorts of systems / package that probably start at £5k but are likely to be £10-£50K

oh and to follow the theme of this thread, assuming you have the right contacts, customer orders lined up with a book value of at least 400k, I'm in

Yes i do have my head screwed on, far to may people jumping to conclusions that this thread is a joke just because they haven't got there head screwed on and can't think of a business model that can generate high revenue. It can be done if your smart and can think outside the box

Business model doesn't work like this, Its better ;)

I am not here to argue with anyone as don't have time for that, i'm just looking for an experienced PC builder that has a passion for it. You need to expand your knowledge further then start thinking outside the box, I obviously know something you don't and building high-end PC's is just one of a few things that i plan to do that have huge potential to be lucrative. Like i said i'm further along in one of my projects (consumer electronics) which is set to launch late 2011/early 2012 that particular one will be part of a brand that already is running in the US since last year.

I never said it was a job, I said "to bring in and be part of 1 of a few unique projects am working on" yes eventually when the builder starts to build the PC's they wouldn't be doing it for free, the builder may even end up being fully part of the project and owning a % depending on what else they can bring to the table either way its a very good opportunity for the builder.

If people want to carry on with there rude posts without knowing the facts that's there problem doesn't bother me in the slightest and i haven't got the time to entertain them. Time is money and there is plenty of money to be made and my future to create, working 9-5 everyday for the rest of my life for a pay only enough to get by isn't my idea of fun.

Go to bed for christs sake, you sound like a ****.
 
Age:19
Location: London during uni term time
Experience: 2 years
Number of pc's built: six
Time it takes to build a pc: depends on spec. Built a full gaming rig in an hour, a cheap thing in half, my current rig took about an hour and a half + leak testing.
Water-cooling experience: current rig, click link in sig for details, also wrote a full guide on how to watercool which is now a stickied thread on these forums.
Overclocking experience: clocked a few i7 first gen chips, one to 4.6 ghz under water (860). Clocked an i3 to 4.8ghz, and have reached 5.1 on my current i5. Also clocked my gtx 580 to 1ghz under water. Note, all of these clocks have been 24/7 prime stable.

I hope that is good enough, my email is in my trust :)
