Lenovo y510p SLI: GDDR5 or DDR3 memory type compatibility

[voidox]

So I just recently bought a GT750M SLI, for my Lenovo y510p, and I find that it is has the DDR3 memory type.... Now my y510p has the GDDR5 memory type.

With that in mind, my question is:

will this be a problem as I need a GDDR5 SLI for me to be able to run the SLI setup? or can i run this current setup as memory type doesn't really matter?

Thanks~

GDDR5 is for GPU, DDR3 is for the computer. they are not the same

well, I went ahead and plugged in the SLI:

checked with GPU-Z and it shows that the SLI has GDDR5 memory type.... no idea then why the packaging has written DDR3 on it as ya, that's to do with RAM nothing to do with card... confused me o.o

Went ahead and tested the config and it's running... so unless I'm missing something, I guess a mod can close this thread~
