    they offer 128MB Ram

    I am plannin to use 2 sites

    Will you be using cPanel? If you will be using cPanel 128MB won't be enough I'm afraid.

    If you are going to use Cpanel; I believe you will need another 128GB of RAM for this.

    Must have meant 128 MB of memory. But that would only = 256 MB of memory, which isn't enough, IMO. You should at least have 512 MB of memory if you're going to be using cPanel with a VPS.

    A forum uses a lot of memory, I think something with 512MB is more suitable... Even something with at least 256.

    256mb is a minimum for apache+php as base for wordpress... But with 256Mb you have to optimize configuration in order to have more or less good performance.

    128mb is rather low. Most packages I've seen start at 512mb.

    Give Webmin a try instead of using cPanel. And if you are experienced, then you won't even need a control panel.
