as long as it has a PCI Express x16 or x8 slot you can put any graphic card that is PCI express doesnt matter if its DDR2 or 3

yup it will work fine with GDDR2, GDDR3 and GDDR4 PCI Express based video cards by ATI, NVIDIA and S3...

As for DDR2 and DDR3 -- the Intel D975XBX2 only supports 240-pin DDR2 memory kits!

DDR=Double Data Rate
GDDR= Graphics data rate (i think) lol
if so then the D975XBX2 can have any DDR2 and above graphics card?
so basically GDDR is Graphics card and DDR is just ur ram?

yes you are correct.

The Intel D975XBX2 uses just DDR2 for system memory - DDR1 and DDR3 will not work.

As for a video card any PCIe video card will work be it GDDR1, GDDR2, GDDR3, GDDR4 (as long as it's a PCIe based graphics card and not AGP it will plug in and work be it there are drivers for your OS)
