YES, OF COURSE! What matters is that it is a PCIe card and the motherboard has x16 Pcie graphics slot. Do NOT confuse system RAM on the motherboard with videoram on the graphics card. They are entirely different.

That Asus motherboard deserves a better card. Consider the 8600GT or GTS at least. BUT a Geforce 8800GTX or Ultra would be awesome on that board.

Graphics card ram, and system ram are completly different things. If they invented DDR12 graphics card ram and the card still fit into your motherboard with DDR system ram, it would still work. So as long as the slot in the motherboard(agp or pci expressx16) is the same as the graphics card then it will work. The ddr3 ram is for the graphics card, it is only used for storing the video information that the gpu(graphics processing unit) uses. The ram from the sticks you put in your motherboard is for your cpu(central processing unit) to use, to store information for read/write to/from your harddrive. As long as the card fits it works.

The computer doesn't care what type of memory your video card uses because the video card uses the DDR3 memory to run its own processer called a GPU.
