    It should be the same, however some drivers might be different. You will have to download them from Gateway

    Cheers...

    Yes, it does and you will only need a new video driver.

    sweet thanks, I actually used the one from Nvidia and it works but someone told me not to use it since it has bugs so I will check into that
