You haven't mentioned your target price or the primary purpose of the 
machine.

The most important thing to me is CPU.  I have a middling 6-core i5 that 
is faster than my more expensive 4 core i7.  I like that one a lot.  I 
wouldn't go less than an i5 if you can afford it.

Everything to me is secondary after that (for POV-Ray).

If you want to game, you need at least a $100 video card.
