$1500 gaming PC

[brownmm]

I am looking to replace my current PC, and was considering building my own. I was hoping to be able to build a good gaming PC for around $1500, if possible able to run Crysis at pretty high settings. Any recommendations about what specs to use? Any at all would be appreciated.
