Ya except for the fact that you can't run qx9650s on a skulltrail rig.
You can't even run qx9770s on a skulltrail rig. It takes 2 QX9775's and they are $1500 a piece. Its ridiculous.

yeah, $2100 just for the board and CPUs. then add in $500x3 for the 9800GX2s and you've got quite a system and a lot of money put into it, not to mention a beast of a power supply for all that, and you wouldn't want any less than 8GBs of RAM for something like that. Of course, if you're going all out you might as well just do 16GB RAM with a 64-bit OS.

It's more than $2100.
The chips are $1500 a piece. It's about $3600 for the 2 chips and a board. Then you have to pay alot for the FB dimms

what i dont understand is my brother built a brand new fuckin computer for 1100 and bought the best parts possible (the only thing he didnt max out was ram and he got 2GB) and yet this parts ur mentioning are costing 1500$ for just one part or some shit... that doesnt make sense to me

Well he didnt get near the best rig possible.
But you can build one spectacular rig for $1100. Something along the lines of Phenom 9650BE, 4gb ddr2, likean 8800gts 512mb (or better yet wait for the HD4 series) That's the route I would go. Try and find the specs of the rig that your bro built.

well, maybe if someone who wasn't too bright came to be in possession of one and you happen to be rather persuasive...

I second that, skulltrail is so expensive and "rare" that anyone who had one, would know what it is and is unlikely to sell it for less than its worth...unless they are loaded and just buy things they dont need all the time  But...you could get a skulltrail-like system using dual quad core processors for under $1100
