Okay this is a newb question. I imagine this has been discussed before, but I failed at a search for it, so I'll ask anyway. Would a graphics card that is GDDR4 (e.g., Sapphire Radeon HD 3870) run on a DDR2 motherboard (e.g., MSI P45 Platinum)?

There's no connection between mobo memory and graphics memory. Absolutely none!!
