Select a pod based on CPU

I want to run some graphics intensive applications on my pod, although I need a good CPU and a GPU. Currently when I tried a couple of pods the CPU freq ranged from 700Mhz upto 3 GHz. Is there any way I can configure and filter pods based on the CPU they provide along with the GPU?

there is no way to configure gpu pods' cpu model

but i guess there is a pair for it, you can access them in graphql API if im not wrong or docs

but if you do rent the whole machine like 8x gpus, it'll be powerful on the cpu, since it isnt throttled (in simple explanation) to fairly divided with the other's

The division on CPUs is somewhat okay to me, I'm specifically looking for CPUs with higher base clock.

I checked out the APIs, although it seems like while creating a pod I can either give constrains on the GPU or the CPU, but not both. The CPU constraints only work when making a CPU only pod.

Let me know if I have missed something.

im not sure i dont use the api much
