Boosts performance, but by how much?

The Last Puff
I have an Athlon X4 635 running on a Asus 785G Pro board with 2GB of DDR3 RAM.

I have hardly used the PC, but now that I'm quite jobless for the next two weeks and planning to relive those glorious nights playing FEAR and only for that I'm planning to buy my friends old 8600GT for maybe around a grand.

Just wanted to know what frame rates I can expect from this card when running FEAR (the first part) on 1080p (22") or what is the max resolution I can go to with this set up?

Am I lucky enough to crank it up to 2xAA with the same resolution and still have playable frame rates?

I dont want to invest in anything else, so it's either this or onboard.
