Fusion PC core requirements

I am having a lot of slowdown and crashes which seem to get worse as my design file grows. 

I use I high end laptop now but am ready to spend some cash and purchase a dedicated desktop design station.

I had heard in the past that fusion worked with one core so the less cores the better the performance however I have seen posts stating the opposite.

What is the ideal high end system in 2022?

I am not too knowledgeable about PC components so a recipe style answer would be extremely helpful.

What CPU, Graphics card, memory, etc, or perhaps a pro level prebuilt model name...

Our designs can get very heavy with designed components and imported mesh geometry...to the point that I need to split my designs into pieces in order to keep moving forward and not wait 2 minutes every time I try to edit something.

Id love to have a system powerful enough to keep it all together.

Hi,

1. For the CPU, the faster the better.

2. Graphic > midrange

I think you should be more specific about the nature of the slowdowns and maybe share a design that exhibits problems.

I will try to build a mock project to recreate the issues.  I'm under NDAs and am not allowed to share anything at all but the problems get worse as the design grows.  The problems occur mostly when using the pull feature or while sketching.  Seems that it struggles to compute for maybe 2 or more minutes then either finishes or gives me an error saying that the operation could not be performed.

When I take a section of a design and copy it into a new project, the lag goes away.

I feel like there are multiple issues, but even if there are errors preventing something like a "Pull" operation from happening, I don't see why it would take so much time to figure out that it needs to abort.  I feel like maybe my processor is struggling to do the job in a timely fashion.
