Memory Clock on 7970

Does memory clock make a difference? I'm overclocking my 7970, and I see really no noticeable difference in increasing the memory clock, well besides more instability. I'd like to get to 1250MHz but from what I've learned reading sites and forums about overclocking core clock speed and memory clock speed should be increased proportionally.

Should I just worry about increasing the clock speed to 1250MHz and leaving the memory clock at 1500MHz? Will it become a problem later on?
 
No need to increase the memory speed as they aren't linked. I've found memory OCing to be woefully unimpressive on AMD cards with maybe a %1 performance increase, if that.


Which card do you have?
