Custom PC Business Idea

[airwalk111]

After much deliberation and thought, a close friend and I feel we have come across a hidden gold mine.

Have you ever seen the TV show Tanked? If no, then the whole show is about these entrepreneurs who go around the USA designing fully fish tanks, that are insanely custom for big buyers. No two tanks they create are a like, and each one has its own special flare.

So long story short, my friend and I want to take this same concept and adapt it to custom PCs. For those of you who are not aware custom PCs in the gaming world are a huge business. Many of these PCs are very creative, and completely unique. Take this photo for instance:

Creative people spend big bucks building their own PC builds only to discover its a lot harder than they originally envisioned.

This business could adapt to so much more than just the computers themselves, and expand it into entire custom gaming setups for high-end buyers. So just out of curiosity from those who have actually started their own businesses, does this sound like a viable idea?

PS: Feel free to ask any questions, and I will answer them ASAP. Thank you.
