DDR2, DDR3 VGA, with DDR RAM

Does AGP video card with DDR2 or DDR3 can be used by a computer with main memory is still using regular DDR type? What is the difference between DDR video card with DDR2 and DDR3?

Answer:
As long as the available VGA slot on the motherboard is AGP, not a problem. VGA memory with RAM on the motherboard are not directly related to each other and do not affect performance. Similarly, each with speed. Unconnected. It could be memory DDR2 or DDR3 VGA work on the clock 1000MHz, although the main memory on the motherboard only the DDR ordinary working on 400MHz clock.

Differences between DDR memory VGA with DDR2 and DDR3 is the technology. DDR2 and DDR3 is better, the new technology. Advantage is its ability to work at a faster frequency, but also and more efficient in power consumption. Also the heat generated also lower compared with DDR memory, especially when working in the same frequency.

Well, the performance of video memory is better this could certainly affect the overall performance, although core graphics cards that use the same GPU. But surely a larger role in determining the extent to which the performance of a VGA card remains the task of graphics chips.
