I have a 12600KF and I used a 4080 at 4k 1% of the time I was bottlenecked, now I got the same I5 with a 4090 and I get slight bottlenecks in some games at 4k but upgrading to a 13900K anyways

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.
4080
I upgraded my 3060ti with a 4070 for the frame gen in MSFS , cs, battlefield, cod, a few others to take advantage of the 165hz monitor. Haters will hate, but im loving it. Probably not worth it if you dont have 120Hz + monitor though
3060TI should be plenty for 1080P, but if your not happy with the performance move up to the 4070.
Through that garbage of a cpu away thats made for laptops(E cores are only supposed to benin laptops not 100w computers!!) And get a 7700xt. Pair it with rx 7800xt... I wouldnt never get a cpu that has e-cores for a fullblown pc.. i want more normal cores intel . Im having an intel cpu rn but i will upgrade to amd next year
Ti if you want to max RT or go up to 1440p
Does the 3060ti not maintain 60fps raster in any game you are playing right now? If it does then keep it. Only upgrade when you can’t do 60fps
The 3060ti is a great GPU for 1080p gaming. I'd think about upgrading in a few years and skip 40xx and maybe even 50xx series.
A 4080
Anything really, however maybe think about switching to 1440p monitor. A good monitor will last you for longer than any gpu.
On a 3060 Ti, RDR2 should run at 60-80 FPS in St. Denis with ultra settings at 1080p. With HUB optimized settings you can get over 100 FPS with a 3060 Ti. This is with a 5900X. Without DLSS too.
Don't even need to say anything about CS2.
It's a waste of money to upgrade for the games you play.
Wait until CES 2024 and what gets announced to be released by Jan or Feb.
Upgrade your monitors before you think of a GPU upgrade tbh 3060ti is plenty good for 1080p
