I wouldn’t upgrade without upgrading your gpu first. The 4070ti will most likely max out your 12700kf and a 4080 the 12700kf will start to be the bottleneck. One of those two is the best options for an upgrade here. Not sure why you would need 128gb of ram if your just gaming? Size doesn’t help at all with fps. You would see a 20% increase in fps with 32gb of tuned B-die after the gpu upgrade of course.

Give competitors' recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.

CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

Nope, no reason. Better off upgrading that GPU, it's the bottleneck.
All OP plays are flight sims which are CPU intensive. The CPU is the bottleneck and will give him the biggest results.
