Crysis has a max and an ultra max setting. With your current config, you can probably get away with max @ 1024x768. You'll still be getting about +/- 30FPS. Crysis is just a really demanding game, but it still looks great at 1024x768/max.

Couple things:
Don't know why you would get liquid cooling without the overclock option.
Unless you're running vista 64 bit 4 gigs of RAM is useless, can only use 2.8 gigs otherwise I believe.
AMD compared to Intel - Don't know why you'd choose AMD for price to performance comparison.

Check out ticket # 123618. I made a Crysis playing system that'll run it at Ultra High settings @ 1024x768 or Mostly Ultra High settings (shadows at medium) @1280x1024.

Here's a link for ease: http://www.digitalstormonline.com/comploadsaved.asp?id=123618

It's under the $1600 price range too.
