Skyrim doesn't take much to play with decent framerate. My iMac runs it at 2560x1440 with pretty much everything maxed except I don't use any anti-aliasing whatsoever, and it's nowhere near a dedicated gaming box. The models are so fine that aa isn't needed either.
i7 860 @ 2.8ghz
mobility 4850 w/512mb gddr3 vram
16gb 1066hz ram.
Average framerate, 30fps.
Any entry level custom box that's around 500usd should be able to more than max that game out.
