It would be wiser to put whatever PCI card you have in your AMD computer and use whatever PCI-E card you are getting in your new Gateway Quad core computer. It will be much faster. That way, the AMD computer will be much better suited for old games and the Intel computer will be much better suited for new games.

Yes, that is the most logical/effective way to go.

+1 to that, u2k, if you don't take that advice then DON'T TELL US! You'll only make people angry. :rolleyes:

Also, people stop responding to this thread please, it should've died long ago (and I know I'm being hipocritical posting in it, but how else will I tell people to stop?!)
