You have to buy compatible RDRAM but it doesn't have to be from Dell, but it's fairly rare these days so not a lot of places sell it.
download sisoft sandra (google), it tells u alot about what ur pc have and not
memory on vga u have is not removable, and its used only for vga purpose, its way deferent that DIMM modules that u need
I've already given you the motherboard specs. You don't have 2 types of slots, just RDRAM. Dell's in the business of saving money wherever possible, so they wouldn't waste resources by adding different memory slots and most likely a second northbridge or some convoluted solution. I've never heard of a dual RDRAM / DDR board, doubt it's easy to do.
I'll say again:
