GDDR3 was specified in 2002, while GDDR5 was first demonstrated in 2007.
If your motherboard is so old that it doesn't support a 2007 standard, you shouldn't use it. You will run into a host of other issues that I won't even bother to mention.
Honestly hashrate will be the last of your problem.

Just get a cheap, up-to-date motherboard with a Celeron CPU.

    not much issues as I can put the 580 in and it will run pubg with 0 problems but I guess I should change my question to Has anyone run a ddr5 card on a ddr3 mobo pci and had any loss of hash

Why not try it yourself, I suppose it should work  because system RAM has little to do with GPU VRAM in terms of mining especially or does it ?

Until this year I was mining with a Dell XPS 700 with DDR2 RAM and PCI-E 1.1 slots. I still use it as a test bench and have RX 580's that get 32 MH/s+ dual mining on it. As long as there are enough system resources you shouldn't have a noticeable performance loss, especially using powered risers. The main issue you may have is if the card draws a lot of power from the PCI-E slot instead of the VGA power connector. Older motherboards don't support constant high power draw through the PCI-E slot as more modern motherboards.
