To install newer and powerfull graphics card, you have to upgrade your motherboard. You can get a new motherboard + graphics card + ram for ~$240. Sell your old motherboard and ram. As new ram sticks may conflict with newer rams (not same brand and specification)

You can not use DDR4 because DDR4 uses different slot than DDR3. Actually all DDR version slots are different so you can not put one version ram to different version slot.

Also DDR4 uses lower voltage than DDR3. IF you could install it, the DDR4 ram would burn as motherboard will supply higher voltage.
