I used GPU-Z to see if I can install a GeForce 6200 512MB PCI Graphics card, the bus interface is PCI. So does this mean there is a slot for the card? Card I want: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/EVGA+-+...02&skuId=1734043&st=PCI video cards&cp=1&lp=1

You seem to be the expert on all threads regarding computers then you ask a simple question regarding a PCI slot. Yes, your computer has a PCI slot if it says it has a PCI slot. http://reviews.cnet.com/desktops/gateway-profile-5-5/4505-3118_7-31128739.html That computer is "Super Fast"? The fuck?

A new GPU won't do shit for you. A processor and GPU work together. If one is horrible( The processor) it will drag the other down(the GPU).
