You could use anything, i5 core will do, but remember that Photoshop needs a lot of internal memory, at least 16Gb, 8Gb will let you down in case you work with lots of layers and big files. Be sure your HD has enough paging space as well. Another tip is to let photoshop use 70% of your RAM and a secondary scratch disk, if you have one available.
