Yes its slower but most likely due to higher latency from the 64x32 modules and increased memory controller overhead.
Higher clocked cards are faster then lower clocked cards of the same spec ... obviously ... that's the only reason I added clock for clock

That's cute ..... it sounds alot like the placebo effect

Besides something like Metro 2033 DX11 at ultra high resolutions and crazy amounts of anti aliasing where you get a little better minimum framerates I haven't seen much of anything that shows a 3GB is faster then 1.5GB
