The page at https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/release-notes/blob/master/f/modules/release-notes/pages/welcome/Hardware_Overview.adoc recommends a minimum of 1GB of RAM. This is not really workable with today's graphic environments.
Suggestion:
Oh, I just did something to the hardware minimums. https://pagure.io/fork/augenauf/fedora-docs/release-notes/c/64968b010d0c6970ceaa02b818d95088b0be922c
I think your idea to split it up between the different products would be the best.
There is an old thread here: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/docs@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/3JXWUZQ5JVGECQ2LBRUC5IU5KDMW3FIB/

I have gone through several documents, threads, and wiki pages regarding this. There is still a lot of questionable items but I put together this (WIP) initial draft for the Release notes:
= Hardware requirements == HW requirements for the Workstation, Server, and SilverBlue editions === Minimum hardware requirements * CPU: single-core, 1 GHz (1) * System memory: 2 GB (2) * Drive space: 10 GB * Graphics: capable of the 800 x 600 resolution (3) === Recommended minimum hardware requirements * CPU: dual-core, 1,5 GHz (1) * System memory: 4 GB (2) * Drive space: 20 GB * Graphics: OpenGL 1.3-capable GPU (4) (1) In case of AMD and Intel 64-bit architectures (2) Consider using an installation image on USB or DVD and choosing a Fedora Spin with a lightweight desktop environment when installing on systems with less than 2 GB RAM (3) For the graphical installation program (Anaconda) (4) For GNOME Shell and the Mutter compositing manager === Supported architectures * AMD and Intel 64-bit architectures (x86_64) * The 64-bit ARM architecture (aarch64) (1) (1) link:https://alt.fedoraproject.org/alt/[Alternate architectures] == HW requirements for the CoreOS edition * [TBD] == HW requirements for the IoT edition * [TBD]
I guess it's best to ask working groups/SIGs directly about this: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Workstation https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Server https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cloud https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/c/desktop/silverblue https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/c/server/coreos https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/InternetOfThings
Current hardware requirements in the docs are higher than what was in this report. Closing the issue.
