Will a DDR5 graphics card work with a DDR3 motherboard?

I HV SELECTED GTX650 GDDR5 ....AND MY MOTHERBOARD IS COMBO IT SUPPORTS DDR2&3 RAM SO WILL THT WRK ON MY PC

Yes, DDR3 is the RAM that your motherboard supports, GDDR5 is the VRAM that comes on the graphics card
The graphics card doesn't use your ram slot, it uses the PCI-Express slot

Graphics ram is the dedicated memory that the video card uses, it is separate from system ram

That should work pretty well I guess as long as your PSU has a 6 pin PCI-E power connector
