DONT, DDR sucks on a graphics card

Trust me get the 6800GT and it can EASILY reach 6800ULTRA on stock cooling.

GDDR3 is short for "Graphics Double Data Rate 3rd Generation". Aka, its faster more stable, and much better on cards. Eventually DDR3 will migrate to motherboards just as DDR and DDR2 have.
