The pc for gaming (which is the 2nd pc) is only about 8 feet away from the AP (which will probably be on the floor next to an entrance door) and it is in the same room but the room is partitioned by a wall reaching three quarters of the width of the room and the pc is behind this wall.

Does this wall make much difference in the reception or is it a case of even at 108Mbps wireless isn't much good for gaming ?

you should be alright (getting full rate), as long as the partition material isnt foil lined ..... even then if its in the same room you will get enough of a signal for some bandwidth .... and in fairness online gaming usually confumes SFA bandwidth
