Does internal clearance effect the bearing precision (C3 vs P3)?

C3 is an internal clearance, or the amount of internal free space between the rolling elements and the raceways of a bearing. P3 does not exist. P6 is an ISO tolerance class equivalent to ABEC 3, or the accuracy the bearing is manufactured to. Clearance does not affect tolerance and tolerance does not affect clearance.
