All three fans are operating properly and everything seems normal, so the overheating issue isn't clear.

Intel Core i7 12700 with stock cooler is overheating.
Consider upgrading to a good heatpipe or tower cooler.
Options include Bequiet Dark Rock 4, Cryorig H5, Deepcool AK500 or similar.

I've been occupied recently, yet I finally managed to get/ install a new cooler (NH D12L). My performance hasn't improved.

It might be the motherboard overheating and limiting CPU performance, or there could be a power supply problem. Good components exist—should you replace the motherboard and case instead of sticking with them?

I haven't been very keen on investing heavily after just a year, especially since I already wasted around 90$ on a solution that failed. Are there any tools to monitor the actual motherboard temperature, or should I just assume the problem lies with the motherboard?

Hardware Monitor or HWInfo64 can generally get you some motherboard temperatures, but they aren't generally labeled very well. Something of an industry wide problem I hope they get around to fixing some day.
VRMs can generally tolerate 100C, with ratings usually much higher than that. But you don't want to see such temperatures and it is a sign of issues.
Just a prudent move since you are getting away from a proprietary motherboard, PSU, and chassis and the underwhelming stock coolers that Dell typically ships. Dell is also known to have pretty extreme power limits so their coolers are more effective, so you may actually gain some performance that way.

I have HWInfo, if you have any suggestions on which part to examine. As I mentioned, even if there are problems with Dell, I still want assurance that it's related to the hardware before proceeding with another purchase.

You would want to look at the section under your motherboard:
Temp sensors questions
Looking at what I have with my Maximus X Code, here's an HWInfo screenshot: So why is T_Sensor1 still under the ASUS EC but you can still use it as a monitor temperature in the BIOS? I thought T_Sensor1 is a non-EC sensor? Also, from what I can tell: T1 = Motherboard Temp T2 = CPU...
www.hwinfo.com
In this example PCH is the chipset. T1 and T2, Temp4, Temp5 could be anything and it is unclear what 'Motherboard' monitors, but you would want them all to look something like this.
Dell is not likely to have as many sensors, but I could be surprised.
Can't definitively know if there is a hardware issue until your components have been tested in another system.

Yeah, HWInfo isn't showing a section for your motherboard under sensors. It says core throttling hasn't started, so at least the Noctua is working. Before you check parts, are there any software problems you might have overlooked?
