Rumor - Microsoft may increase RAM to 12 GB and GPU clock increase to Xbox One

You are forgetting that the Xbox One uses a one chip apu design. If it were an external card then yes maybe they could achieve those speeds. With the gpu sharing the same space as the cpu? Sorry but no way, not if it was not designed for it from the start. Also it would still be lacking somewhat in the memory bandwidth department.

If they want to increase clock on anything they should increase it on the cpu instead.

Nah, you can achieve that in an APU, I've overclocked AMD APU's beyond 1ghz on the GPU core and they were all VLIW4 based.
Great thing AMD did when they implemented the Resonant clock mesh and power gating.

Also, Memory bandwidth is only half the story, these are consoles remember, you aren't gaming at super high resolutions.
