May 24, 2017 · The gddr5 is a faster type of memory used in graphics cards they need memory to perform all the graphics related calculations and render them. The memory's don't have to match from motherboard to graphics card .

Nov 7, 2013 · No, you come across GDDR5 and DDR3, there is no DDR5 yet -- they just released DDR4 in limited supply and no motherboards will use it until the Fall. GDDR5 -- Graphics Double Data Rate v. 5 -- is specialized video memory based on DDR3 architecture. The card with the GDDR5 will be faster and more expensive than that will regular old DDR3 that you use on your motherboard with a different ...

Aug 26, 2013 · I do really want to know the difference between a ddr3 GPU and ddr5 GPU. Both have to do with memory bandwidths. The short answer is that GDDR5 results in faster memory bandwidth than DDR3. The longer answer is that GDDR5 is the more recent type of double data ram, the "G" standing for "graphics", and is just for graphics cards.

May 4, 2009 · It seems to me that what matters most is the OP's monitors resolution and his budget for a gfx card . Technical specs have very little meaning , but real world performance does . Whats important is frame rates , at the quality you want for the games you want to play. Of the OP's three listed card the 4870 and gtx 260 have very similar performance , despite the different RAM , and the 4770 is a ...

Nov 3, 2016 · Both are extremely powerful cards. 8gb 1080 has GDDR5X while the 1070 has GDDR5. Meaning the 1080 has faster memory. 1080 is designed with the future in mind in terms of optimizing for VR and stuff like that. Both are extraordinary cards and can play just about any game at ultra at the moment. I have a GTX 980ti which is pretty equivalent to the 1070 than both those cards and I manage to play ...

Mar 1, 2014 · The only time you see GDDR3 Vs. GDDR5 is on slower graphics cards, there's a reason faster graphics cards all have GDDR5 right now. The only time you need more memory on a graphics card is when you're doing hi resolution gaming, and since low end cards won't do hi resolution gaming very well, the best bet is the faster memory.

Apr 7, 2018 · Hi, I have Acer Nitro 5 - AMD Edition and I tried playing on all games and yes the laptop manage to play the game I want somehow but it gave me kinda bit disappointing FPS on all settings (LOW OR HIGH) I have no idea how but my drivers are all up to date. Here's my laptop specs: OS: Windows...

Jun 9, 2013 · While gddr5 is effectively qdr (4 transfers per command clock), it is still in fact 2 transfers per cycle (ddr) but the data clock is 2x command clock. Though my original comment was really a correction on the acronym not really the meaning of it.

Feb 27, 2015 · The 390x should be coming out soon, and it has insane specs compared to any card out there right now, the 4gb memory on it will be HBM, not gddr5, meaning huge increases in memory speeds and bandwidth, while using less power.

Jan 12, 2012 · looks to me like they dont have 1080 (close but not exact) but from what i saw in the review, the guy was playing it 40FPS triple screen it must be cuss threes 3GB of GDDR5..... meaning that the 7990 should be able to have 6GB but out of subject
