Mac Model

I have a PowerMac G4 (blue tower) it says it is an PowerMac G4 on the case and in the About This Mac window but MacTracker says it is a G3 according to its pic and model number. So is it a mistake with MacTracker or is the Mac really another Mac.

PowerMac, Mac OS X (10.3.x), Mac Powermac G4 10.3.9

Open System Profile (or Apple System Profile) in the Utilities folder. What Model Identifier is reported on the right in the opening display? If it says PowerMac 1,2 or better then it's a G4.
