If not too many VARCHAR columns this should work on a pair of 16 GB nodes.

Can't translate that

~2000 queries a second which is quite doable for simple queries on a small cluster
but a select statement can take anything from a part of a milliseconds to a very long time
so it is hard to say more without more details of what queries actually are processed.

10000 queries top is rather likely to require some processing resources.
You will probably need a few MySQL Servers to handle the query processing load and
probably at least 4 data nodes for the storage part.

Most likely 64-bit machines given the data size and the speed requirements (64-bits ==
modern machine == fast machine).
