Video slots are not "DDR3"  GDDR5 video cards work fine for your model specifically GT 1030 GDDR5.

Another card a bit slower but not over priced 200 to 500 percent is.

User benchmark shows you popular gpu used in 7010.  It also shows all the gpu users have successfully installed and run in 7010.  some cards require psu upgrade.  When you upgrade gpu, one important spec to consider is whether it matches cpu (which has a top limit based on your motherboard).  No top limit of gpu to be installed and run as long as psu is powerful enough and chassis is large enough to accommodate, but a slow cpu can bottleneck a fast gpu which can not fully unleash its power and becomes a waste of money.

7010 top cpu is i7-3770.

What CPU do you have and what form factor/size is your 7010?
