The i9 9900k or the i7 9700k? Looking to keep a solid 60FPS with some callout packs and other plugins. Mainly the essentials and most downloaded plugins / scripts. Not sure if VisualV, MVGA, and / or NVR add a toll onto the CPU, but I'll be running those also.

If you cool the 9900k well it would certainly deliver stronger results, but I think the 9700k should be more than sufficient. Once you have a decent CPU, most of the taxing features in the game come from the graphics settings (resolution, AA). Most benchmarks have the CPUs at virtually the same FPS.

Thank you my good sir. Super excited. Just to clarify, I'll be able to hold a solid 60+ fps? Maybe even 75+ fps? Do you know if the added graphics mods (MVGA, VisualV) start to affect the CPU rather the GPU?

It will depend on your resolution and your GPU too, but yeah, 60FPS should be easily doable.  I am unfortunately not sure how these mods work in detail, but I would assume they mostly affect the GPU.
