As Lucas put so well
The ddr4 in your pc is memory installed in the motherboard stores information on an integrated circuit used by the operating system, software, and hardware
The gddr5 is a faster type of memory used in graphics cards they need memory to perform all the graphics related calculations and render them.
The memory's don't have to match from motherboard to graphics card .
