August and September usually herald the return of classes and homework to kids across the nation. CyberPower and Newegg want to sweeten that deal by adding a back-to-school gaming machine to the piles of textbooks and mechanical pencils.

The series comes in three flavors for young gamers with different needs (and budgets). The entry-level CyberPower PC Gamer Ultra 7209 is equipped with a 2.8-GHz AMD Athlon II X2 240 processor, 4GB of RAM, 500 GB of hard drive space and an ATI Radeon HD 4550 graphics card. Not too shabby, especially for $490.

The Gamer Infinity 6314 sits in the mid-range of desktops, with a 3 GHz Core 2 Duo E8400 processor, 4GB of RAM, a 1-terabyte hard drive and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 graphics card for $1009.

At the upper-end of the spectrum is the Gamer Xtreme 1019, running an Intel Core i7 processor at over 3 GHz, 12GB of RAM, two terabytes of hard drive space, a Blu-ray drive and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 295 graphics card. This epic gaming rig will set you back $2,149, a small price to pay for all that, ahem, class work you'll be using it for.

All of the systems are available now from Newegg.com.
