What fits in its RAM
32 GB, less a 25% safety margin and about 512 MB for the OS and Docker, leaves roughly 25,702 MB for apps — the same arithmetic our stack builder uses to size a VPS.
312 of 312 catalog apps would fit on their own. Of all 312 apps, 268 have a measured idle figure; the rest use the project's own documented minimum. The median measured app idles at 175 MB, so about 146 such apps side by side.

how to read thisRAM is the only limit modelled here. These figures are idle footprints at first boot, so CPU, disk and a busy app can all need more. Treat the numbers as a floor, not a promise that a stack will run.
Our recommendation
The roomiest class here: x86 with 32 GB gives the largest RAM budget, enough that CPU rather than memory is more likely to be your limit.
What you take on
non-negotiableRyzen models differ widely in core count, so we do not give one for this class; check the exact chip.
non-negotiablePower draw and fan noise vary by maker and chip, so check the specific model before you leave it running around the clock.
non-negotiableStorage, ports and cooling vary by maker, so check the specific model.
