As has already been stated, the CPU/GPU coordination is really where the hangup happens with performance. Stef brings up a great point about cooling and the power is obviously important (longevity per dollar).
From personal experience I have an asus motherboard with an intel socket that uses and i3.
Graphics card is gtx 560 (not the 'ePenis' megadream but it works and is cheap). RAM of course helps. splurge a little on each individual component to get a system that overall runs soundly. You can always update each component at a later date.
I have recorded and it has been relatively fine. My biggest issue has always been upload simply because comcast's upload packages are shit
