What sort of budget are you hoping for when you say "not too dear" and more importantly - what sort of usage will you be gettting out of it? - what is the main games you think you'l play etc

around the £100 mark play a lot off war games ,world of war craft flight sims etc

One of the HD7770's for that money, for another £50 you could get a HD7850 though.

That's the graphics RAM, not the system RAM. So yes.

Ddr3 is the for the ram you insert onto the board, the.ddr5 of is the ram the gpu has built into it if.you will, completly independent from this ram, everythings fine/compatible
