Does obs need more ram?
Does OBS need more RAM? Unlikely, lack of RAM generally wouldn't affect performance of an encoding task, it would cause more system-wide problems and application errors. That said, 8 GB is fairly low, but more than enough to use for just OBS.

Does obs use your gpu?
Can I Run OBS Without a Graphics Card? You run OBS without a GPU just fine for the most part. OBS supports both GPU and CPU encoding. Obviously, you won't be able to use GPU encoding, so as long as your CPU is powerful enough to encode your stream/recording, you'll be fine.
