no it doesnt. the memory type on a video card is simply there for those people who want to know every little clock speed on their system and buy the cards with the faster ones. or, in some people case, its for people who mod their card with things like more ram, or even an extra GPU (saw some NASA IT guy do that on a 7600GT, never seen anyone else even try it), so that they get the ram types the same and the card functions correctly. in fact, its impossible (or on a practical standard at least) to match the two types because video cards run off of totally differnt types (like GDDR3, most ram is either DDR or DDR2)
Hope this helps!

Hell no.
But it may have a conflict you will have to solve if you switched from 1 type to another.
