PC Graphics

I recently thought about buying an RX 560 for my low-end PC but my uncle said that it's not compatible with my motherboard. My motherboard is 'Hi-Fi A70U3P. He said that only DDR3 graphics cards are compatible because of the DDR3 RAM, I might be wrong, but I think it's called GDDR instead of DDR for the graphics card. Please tell me if it's compatible with my motherboard.

That GPU needs a PCI-Express x16 slot and your board has such a slot according to https://www.biostar-europe.com/app/de/mb/introduction.php?S_ID=888#specification
Therefore it should be possible to use a RX 560 with it.

What kind of RAM you're using on your board doesn't matter for the GPU. The GPU has it's own dedicated RAM and yes, it's called GDDR RAM.
