VXR with NPE-400 isn't out of everything. 
c7200-advipservicesk9-mz.152-4.M4.bin for instance work just fine on 
NPE-400 and is supported.

To original poster, you probably want 512M of ram on it. It'll use approx 
130-150W of power.

If you need full tables, get NPE-G1 with 1G of RAM.

So +1 on the 7200 recommendation for the description of what's needed.
