    Asus says that the A8 series will have a DX10 card out in about a month, I think its the ATI X2300. Hear is a quote from elseware in the forums.

    speed and operating efficiency is the main difference between gddr3 and ddr2, gddr3 has been in use for high end desktop video cards for a few years, the gf 6800's had it, a good comparison would be between a gf 7600 gs and 7600 gt , the 7600 gt uses gddr3 and smokes the ddr2 gs, the core clocks can be different, (other than that they are the same) but the end result is clear
