They're probably talking about dedicated RAM, although even then I wouldn't trust it not to be overprovisioned up to 2:1 on NVME swap.

Hetzner dedicated cores come with 4gb of memory per vCPU for reference.

1.2 GBP/mo for a dedicated core is wildly off market price. There's no way they'd be able to make a profit, so either they're going out of business tomorrow or it's not dedicated.

hourly benchmarks confirm it's definitely DDR4 RAM, standard SATA SSD with acceptable IOPS, and decent enough network. it's the budget branch of the biggest hosting provider so maybe they can afford to. how long it lasts only time will tell
