Although, I'd question the value of a quad core in gamer anyway ...
90% of the games out there are still single core ponies.

Even so, either on Windows or Linux everyone will benefit more from Quad
Core than from Dual Core, even if the games, and apps are single core
aware. Remember something like a game often have a separate graphics
engine, and you still need to run the main OS, plus sound / video / LAN
/ etc drivers, plus firewall, plus antivirus, etc. Yes, even games can
benefit from a Quad Core, so the same system could be used as a VERY
NICE game machine, it will beat any other normal game machine hands down.
