Hello,
What would the recommended minimum amount of RAM be, to run Centos 7.
16GB???
Jay, it helps us help you when you give more information.
I have CentOS 7 running happily on 4GB. My presumption - based on
experience, extrapolation, and google - is that it will also run with 64TB.
Anything between those numbers should be good.

L, The use of this machine would be as a home server running as a web and email
server, two users,
light use. My current server has 4GB, but I'm thinking of getting a new box
and if I can afford
it, figured I'd get 16GB vice 8.
I also run it on a quadcore XEON with 16GB as a general dev machine
including LAMP stack and it is very fast on that setup.
Most of the time, only a few of the cores are used and when I have
looked at memory usage it is never anywhere nearing using up the 16GB.
For a new box I would recommend 16GB though just because the cost
difference between 8 GB and 16 GB isn't that great unless you are on a
really tight budget (as I usually am) and even then, if you can find a
way to go 16 GB do it, because it helps future-proof the box so it is
usable for many years into the future.
