Crap. I'll run it on all my PC's at home. I would love to run it on my work PC here, as it sucks, but I am blocked.

FAILED! I'm just to the left of minimum. I'm surprized it tested that well.

I'm surprised at how well my system did. It was a little over two years ago that I built it, and it is still killing games like Bioshock. My videocard is a 7800 w/ 256MB ram, probably faster than the GPU that you recently picked up (7600, right?). And with the water cooling, I have my CPU running at the equivalent of 6.6 GHz, and I have 2 GB of RAM with the latency settings tweaked. Plus, my OS runs on a 10,000 rpm hard drive.
I've been thinking about an upgrade because of all the great games coming out, but having played Bioshock with such aplomb, I might hold off for another 6 months. There is a TON of new tech coming out Q1 of '08 that should see the major PC transition that we saw a few years ago.

I'm not even going to worry about running it on my PC. My current computer is one that I built about 4 and a half years ago, and I have no doubt that Crysis will not run on it.
2.8Ghz P4 w/ HT, 2Gb Corsair XMS PC3200, 250GB IDE HDD, 250GB External USB HDD, 6800XT w/ 256MB AGP (oc'd to 1.5Ghz memory and 750mhz core clock).
I seriously need a new computer. I just built one for a client with a dual core AMD 64 X2 and 2Gb of PC6800 and it annihilates my PC at regular tasks. Didn't install a video card per the cx's request to use on board video.
As Swivel said, I'm going to wait until next year when the newer, better gear is getting released.
