"Wait for the 5500x3d. It will easily be the best value pc part for planetside 2."
"X3d chips are the only real stable cpus for this game, either 5700x3d, 5800x3d or 7800x3d"
"There are pretty much only 2 options for always good fps, ryzen 5800x3d and 7800x3d."
"1. **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 9 or a high-end Intel Core i9 processor."
"Ryzen 5800x3d, Msi Geforce 3060, Samsung Evo 970... Should be able run over 200 fps."
"If you're going to get a B550 you may as well max it out with a 5800x3D."
"7950X3D is launching end of February."
"I’d grab the 5800x3d for around $380."

"If your budget allows, go for an RTX 4070 or higher."
"Don’t go lower than an Rtx 4070. 64gb ram. A good ryzen."
"I think you should go for a rtx 4080 for rendering fast."
"I've got a 5600X and a 4060Ti, which has very similar performance to the 6700XT."
"Either RTX 4070 super, 4070 ti, 4070 ti super, or 4080 GPU from Nvidia."
"Im running GSpro on my computer just fine at 1080p high settings. I have an I5 8600, 1080ti GPU."
"The most important thing is the gpu. Recommended is 3060ti for GSPro."
"For a $1000 build I would go with the 4060 ti 16GB."
"RTX 3060, i7 12th gen, 32gb ram, 1tb nvme ssd."
"Honestly get a gtx 2060 or better and a beefy i5 or any i7 and youre fine."

"This just goes all out pretty much for the cpu."
"Personally I run an 11900KF/3080/16gb ram/reverb g2 as my setup, but it’s arguably a little bit of overkill"
"I'd do a mid-range CPU (i7/Ryzen 7) with 32GB RAM and a 12-16GB GPU."
"Ran the game at medium settings at 100+."
"12100f+rx580."
