“So since the motherboard supports ddr4 ram units, does this mean graphics cards like the gtx 1060 6GB which require ddr5 support, would not be able to be supported by this motherboard?”

No. Totally different memory bus. Video Card memory is irrelevant when dealing with RAM.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Dedicated motherboards have their own RAM. The GTX 1060 shouldn't touch your system RAM.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.That's just the ram it has nothing to do with the GPU. It will work.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You may be confusing the memory types. While that graphics card does feature GDDR5, that is solely for the graphics card to use and has nothing to do with the motherboard desktop memory. The only requirement would be a compatible PCIe 2.0 or 3.0 port (which this motherboard has). That GTX 1060 will work without an issue with this motherboard!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I believe you are confused on how ram works in this sense. This motherboard can share its memory bandwidth with the graphics cards but not vice versa. My personal rig has a 2080ti that has 16gigs from the motherboard shared for a total of 27gigs (total overkill but i like not having to worry about bottle necks)
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, graphics cards contain gddr5 memory wich is different than ddr4 memory. They are not the same and you don’t have to worry about that.
