With that, you'd probably get about High graphics with maybe 4xAA in Crysis. I'm pretty sure FEAR2 will be fine on high/max.
My specs, I can play Crysis on High with 0xAA. However, it is somewhat playable with 8xAA

+1 although i've checked, a Q6600 cost about 50 bucks more than the E8400 on newegg so if you gota keep within the budget, the 8400 is still great
