3rd Generation Core i7, with at least 4GB Ram & 2 GB Intel Graphic card
I recommend a Dell PC with:
OS: Windows 8 Pro, 64 bit
16 GB Ram,
Processor intel i74700,
and a graphic card: GeForce GT 620 if u want a good quality of render.
I recommend the PC because its normally faster, more stable.
been using a i5core Dell inspiron 4 years now, sketchup v-ray, 3D MAX , adobe photoshop and Auto CAD works quite good til now.
PC is more comfortable , more stable
I would recommend any PC or laptop with Intel core i3 processor with 4 GB ram and NIVIDA Graphics Card
To work with AutoCAD latest versions and multimedia software, such as graphics design work my suggest is Dell Precision" SeriesGB, its a very powerful mobile work station. It can be upgrade till4TB storage HD display. And also recommend HP ZBook G3,GB, HP's most powerful mobile workstation currently using in professional companies. I have been using this both workstations.

Laptop or Pc is depend on office where you work. With laptop can work from any were any time.

Several things decides whether to use a laptop or a pc for Autocad Or sketching both plays a good role in performing the task.
PC is cheaper than laptop and we can get larger screen to do our work properly but it is best for office work because it is not portable at the same time laptop is portable and we can carry it to anywhere,we can carry it to our seniors or other experts for evaluation just like we carry our notebook in our colleges for discussion.
Good PC to run AutoCAD can be any with good ram and processor, example
Dell Inspiron 153542
processor: Intel Core i5_4210U
RAM 4GB
Inbuilt HDD:!TB
OS:Windows 8.1
