2) The required RAM is determined primarily by the size of the graphics used.
3) Without taking archives into account.

Note:
In addition to WinCC, Windows also requires space on the hard
disk; e.g. free disk space should be available for the swap file.
The following formula has proven itself in the past:
Size of swap file = 3 x size of RAM.
