The tor process is by far the main consumer of resources in a webtunnel bridge.
A normal bridge will require around 512MB of memory so you should have plenty
with 8GB. The CPU might be the main limitation here I'm confident this will be
enough to run 4 bridges, one per core. But unless all 5 of your bridges will be
at some point having heavy use it should be fine, and I don't expect that to
happen often.

Let us know if I'm wrong.
