Can you tell me what you use for staking ? Notebook, mini pc, raspberry, thanks

The recommendation is at least a Dual-core processor (1.2Ghz) with 2 GB of RAM.
Another recommendation is a low-latency internet connection for optimal sprouting.

Means if using core i3 and ram 4 gb it is safe right? At least far from the obstacles that are not in want and everything runs smoothly.

In theory it must be save but check it yourself and see how the pc is acting. I suggest you to add another 4gb to be sure in the future.

If you are using the minimum resources I listed, the BitBean-qt wallet will use all of it. Remember, sprouting is essentially mining. The program is generating and posting the blocks to the blockchain, just like bitcoin miners do for the bitcoin network at an average rate 10 times faster than bitcoin (1/minute).

I agree with CisColtz, check everything for yourself! If you plan to use the computer for other things at the same time as the program is running, you may want to add more resources for it.

You can run other stuff concurrently, but the program will slow down and yield time to other processes, thereby potentially affecting your sprouting rate.

I sprout on my eth mining rig. I think sprouting is more profitable than the eth generated.
