For SHIII it was:

Supported OS: Windows® 2000/XP (only)
Processor: Pentium® III 1.4 GHz or AMD Athlon™ 1.4 GHz (Pentium 4 2.0 GHz or AMD Athlon 2.0 GHz recommended)
RAM: 512 MB
Video Card: 64 MB (128 MB recommended) DirectX® 9-compliant graphics card (see supported list*)
Sound Card: DirectX 9-compliant PCI card
DirectX Version: 9.0 (included on disc)
DVD-ROM: 4X or better (DVD only)
Hard Drive Space: 1.5 GB free

You are making quite a leap for the RAM, from 512 to 1 Gb. I personally think that will not happen. But must admit I already needed 1 G to run SHIII a litle bit smooth.

I think a slow DVD player will also be good enough because for SHIII the DVD was only used to see if you had a legit version. Atleast as far as I know.

What is your guestimate for required harddisk space ?
