4GB version of this card is a huge gimmick, apparently this card can only use up to 1GB buffer (GPU limitation), any more than that is a waste.

The 4GB's version has lower core & memory speed, which result in poorer performance compared to this OEM version (21% worse according to GD). The OEM version also uses newer tech (Kepler) vs old Fermi of 4GB version.
You can compare them directly and read the side notes:

They have the same level of performance, but GT 630 has newer DirectX, shader model and Open GL version, so GT 630 is better.

This GT 630 is OEM only. You might be talking about the renamed Fermi GT 630 in which case 6670 is better.
