If these games consume more VRAM than there is available on the card then this isn't actually about the PCI-e bandwidth, is it ? This was spun off in the most stupid way that I can think of.
You can clearly see in those graphs that there is an obvious separation from the 8GB and the 4GB results and that this has almost nothing to do with the PCI-e connection speed. When you need to swap memory contents obviously a higher transfer rate between the host and card is going to be beneficial.
This card has enough PCI-e bandwidth, what it doesn't have is enough memory.
