Well, i have been trying almost all type of forum software. According to your specs i will recommend you SMF. It is very simple easy and free. I have tried many forum software's but SMF is one of the most best forum software for Low Specs. There is another forum software Wedge which is very lite. But i don't recommend that because there were many bugs at the time i tested it. MyBB is an other great forum software but it does not work properly on a low specs VPS.
As compared to SMF, MyBB has better plugins themes and control. MyBB plugins are almost up to date while most of SMF mods are outdated and does not works properly without modification. But that is very easy to modify mods to make them works. So overall SMF is better for low end hosts.
