AMD radeon rx 560 4gb only running at 4096 mb of memory?

I bought a pair of these desktops about a month ago listed below.

2018 Lenovo IdeaCentre 720 Desktop Computer, 8-Core AMD Ryzen 7 1700 up to 3.7GHz(beat i7-7700k), 16GB DDR4, 1TB 7200RPM HDD, Radeon RX 560 4GB.

I have been having laggy performance when scrolling web sites like Facebook, when scrolling down the page and coming to a video its blurry and takes a few seconds or longer to load.  I looked into the Radeon setting on the PC's and both are the same and show the video cards only have 4096 mb of memory. I tried updating the drivers and get the message that I'm using the most up to date drivers. I provided a screen shot of my video card settings, please help if you can.

Thanks, wow I feel dumb lol. I thought a GB was way more then 1000 MB I just googled and yes its 1024MB per GB.  I'm just not impressed with the performance.  I just replaced 8 year old desk tops with these systems and don't see a whole lot of difference in performance.
