If you don't care about reproducing the idiosyncrasies of a particular bit of hardware, the best choice today is the "virt" machine. This is a platform which doesn't correspond to any real hardware and is designed for use in virtual machines. It supports PCI, virtio, recent CPUs and large amounts of RAM.
