I've had my index for a year or two now, I've got both desktop and my beefy AF laptop that I play it on, but both are still super janky. The laptop is actually better for it believe it or not but I still get some hiccups here and there.

I know my bottleneck on the desktop is my GPU, CPU is ready for anything I can pair it with, what's a good one that will never let me see a frame drop again?

Come on I know you guys have suggestions

Edit: since you're all asking here's a list I made some time ago with most of my parts

Ignore the storage you see, i have like 2nvme drives and several SSD's that I didn't list

Never is going to be tough, but a fast GPU with a lot of RAM.

If you're serious about it, just start at a 4090 and work your way down to whatever your budget is.

The plan is to pick a goal and save up until my budget gets there , 4090 is a good start, didn't they just announce a 5x series though? (I honestly could have dreamed that)
