Ive been reading online its possible but i need some kind of adapter and i cant find it anywhere does anyone know where i can possibly find it ive looked on ebay but i cant seem to type the right thing to find it if its one there and idk if im looking for the right thing either.

Also the computer i have is a Gateway Essential 866

Please keep in mind that Intel does not recommend using adapters of any kind, I would suggest contacting the motherboard manufacturer for compatibility information, in this case Gateway*.
