Abstract: We complete the study of the topological period-index problem over 8 dimensional finite CW complexes started in a preceding paper. More precisely, we determine the sharp upper bound of the index of a topological Brauer class $alphain{H}^3(X;mathbbZ)$, where $X$ is of the homotopy type of an 8 dimensional finite CW complex and the period of $alpha$ is divisible by 4.
