how come in the spec it says memory clock @ 4008 mhz

Because that's how fast the RAM runs? I don't understand your confusion. If you're looking at the 2004 figure and wondering why it says 4008, DDR is Double Data Rate. The effective speed is usually stated as "the" speed of the memory on the card. Slightly confusing, but that's how DDR works.
