Minimum specs for Google Chrome in the cloud?

My old laptop has 2GB RAM, XFCE and Firefox. It works... but it's not pretty. I tend to be limited to 4-6 tabs in Firefox.

I only need to browse. Nothing else. I want to be able to run 20 tabs. What specs should I be looking at? Is it as simple as 8GB RAM and a SSD?

It gets worse. To hell with my data, to save space, costs and to give me the ability to connect from anywhere without censorship I'm thinking of running Brave Browser on a cloud provider VPS that only spins up when I get home from work. Maybe even gCloud or AWS.

I think it is as simple as more RAM. I don't know much as to which browsers are more lightweight than others, but sounds as if you've already decided to use a specific one.
