Specs for every forum are available on that forum's web site.
A lot of forums (especially if your web site is popular) will require more than virtual hosting, in which case you should get dedicated hosting.

vbulletin requires PHP, and mySQL

UBB just requires Perl.

Any decent foruim software will take quite a bit of hardware power if you've got thousands of users.
