I have a Pentium G3460 in a computer I just built used mostly for gaming, and an i7-4771 in a Gateway desktop. Should I swap them and put the i7 in my gaming rig?

My custom rig:
MSI H81M-P33 motherboard
8GBs of Patriot DDR3
An EVGA 80+ White 500 watt PSU
An EVGA GTX 960
A ThermalTake Frio Silent 12 CPU Cooler
 
Solution
Sure. Gaming rig would benefit from such upgrade nicely.
That is upgrade from 2 cores/2 threads to 4 cores/8 threads.
And that PSU will handle upgrade just fine.
