I think memory is much more important than actual CPU speed or bandwidth (in most cases). I would guess that if you have less than like 32GB RAM you'll likely struggle to sync because for every TX to be processed there is a high chance of it having to search the disk for the corresponding UTXO and then everything is very slow.
