Is this unusual or my card is going crazy?

As I was looking into Far Cry Primal, if I can run it or not, I came across something that made me curious, so I had to ask here, is this unusual for a card, or is it going nuts?

Obviously my card has 3GB VRAM, but on the Can I Run It Site and Detection app, it is shown that I have 4GB of VRAM? How is this possible, and can anyone explain this?

Can I Run It is a pretty bad site, so I'm sure it is just a bug in their detection software.
