Hello friends,
My CPU configuration is i3 2100,intel DH61WW motherboard,4gb RAM.I used MSI N210 1GB DDR3 graphics from the past 3years.Now that card was damaged and I have to buy a new one. My PCI slot is 2.0. I an confused between 2GB DDR3 and 1GB DDR5. Please advice me to choose between this two types of card. Since my motherboard has PCI version 2.0,will it support DDR5??Please help friends...

And one more thing..I am using Seasonic 520 Watt S12II smps.So,is this smps sufficient or I have to change??

GDDR5 is a newer, faster video memory and it performs better than GDDR3, even though you have less memory on the GDDR5 it will give you more frames per second than the GDDR3, because of its higher bandwith, PCIe 2.0 supports GDDR5 so get one with it, if you are planning on resolutions higher than 1080p get a card with at least 2GB of GDDR5. Good luck!
