A. If you're going to build your own that would save you money.
Just make sure you have:

1. Dual Core processor at least 2.7 Ghz
2. Motherboard that supports SLI (in case you want to add another videocard)
3. Nvidia Geforce GTS 250 / ATI HD4830 or higher (If you want to play crysis at max, better invest in HD4870 or GTX 260)
4. at least 2GB memory
5. at least 160GB SATA harddrive

All those would cost less than 400$
