Do you think upgrading to 5600x would be beneficial? You're currently using 1440p with a 3080 resolution.

No, you're not happy with your 8700.

I mean when I check benchmarks from others, I feel like I'm missing out on around 50 to 60 fps. My CPU is running at full capacity while my GPU is only at 40%. It doesn't seem like a power supply issue since I haven't turned it off and my PSU is 650W.

Increase game configurations or run at a sharper quality if your graphics card isn't being utilized adequately. An 8700k typically handles most games smoothly, but pushing settings too low can lead to performance limits.
