2X AA/AF is about the max playable settings you'll get on any low end
FX. My 5700 can handle Quincunx/2X very well with optimizations on all
older games. On more CPU intensive games (like the whole Unreal
series), I tend to be able to enable 2X AA for very little cost while
maintaining a playable framerate.
