Yeah, all the graphics cards are stated like that. It is consumer perception that clock speed matters so as long as one GPU manufacterer puts the double data rate on the box they all will. Some hardware sites use the effective (actual x 2 in the case of DDR) rates, but other, more accurate and high quality sites, use the actual rate. It causes confusion. Stupid marketing punks lol.
the centeral clock shows 500...
because the ram is DDR being 400 means that it has an effective rating of 800mhz. DDR of course standing for Double Data Rate
atleast thats what i think...
though DDR2 slightly different when it comes to a PC

DDR2 and DDR3 are just revisioins of DDR. I was confused for a long time as well until someone explained it. DDR is just that, Double Data Rate effective. Effective meaning the actual frequency of the RAM is 400Mhz but it does 2 operations per clock cycle so it performs as if it were at 800MHz. DDR2 is a second version of DDr, as I said, which in reality just means it allows for higher clocks.
