Is it make a big difference that Gigabyte GA-Z170M-D3H do not supports DDR4 but only DDR3? Will it significantly improve performance if I get mobo with ddr4?

I'm not talking about that board specifically but if you do come to a choice between DDR3 now or DDR4 later, go with 4. I say this because I recently bought a new Motherboard and Processor and I was low on cash so I stuck with DDR3. I wanted to do some upgrades to memory but can't since I know next time I change motherboards is gonna be to a DDR4 type and the old memory upgrade would have been a waste.

Well the "Gigabyte GA-Z170M-D3H" you named does support DDR4.
Your board is actually named "Gigabyte GA-Z170M-D3H DDR3". So yea pretty obvious it needs DDR3. 😀
