On a VM, I run Slack with 1 GB RAM and everything works fine, even KDE.

Older Acer laptop with a semperon processor, 2 GB ram, seems OK with KDE. If KDE is too heavy just try xfce.

Running 14.1 on old Eee PC (1005 HA) with 2 GB RAM. No matter what DE or WM you are running (KDE would be still acceptable, except for startup time), it is always firefox that eats all RAM and CPU and makes whole system unbearably slow...
