DDR5 means the memory runs at DDR5 speed, while your motherboard runs at the speed DDR3
 
You will be fine.
And congratualtions with this awesome card. I got it too and it surely is one of the best out there (atleast when I bought it october last year)
 
It is a nice card, fourth fastest in the world commercially available. I personally have the 5970, fastest on the market.
 
I'll be getting my 5870 E6 Today!

Running 4-5 Accounts at the same time in Eyefinity should be cool.
