We'll see I guess. Might be able to upgrade ap> it to 32Gb depending on what sort of ram it takes. I'm running Proxmox on an old i7 laptop with 4 cores and 16GB of RAM. I'm running a 4GB docker host running my home lab (I'm in the process of moving those to LXC containers), a Windows Server 2019 server, a couple of tester VMs I don't run all the time, and a test Ubuntu server running Synchronet in a test environment. RAM seems to be the constraint, but 2x16GM memory sticks for the system would cost more than the system cost me. If I end up working for myself, I'll upgrade to a SFF server that'll take more RAM, but for now, 4 cores/16GB seems to do fine as a hobby lab. ....
