I want to boost my CPU, GPU, and RAM. I've been playing on my ultra wide 2K screen for about eight months now. I usually get around 75-80 FPS on Ultra mode in most games. Since my monitor can reach 100 FPS, I think an extra boost would help. Could you list all the key parts of my PC build and suggest what targets to aim for?

the test will consume resources such as cpu and ram, which likely explains the drop in fps, similar to streaming while gaming on 4 cores.

Sure, I can verify CPU/GPU usage and temperature while playing the game using HWinfo.

Can you verify the CPU/GPU usage and temperature while playing the game? HWinfo works well.

GPU utilization is near maximum. Frame rates will drop relative to regular 4K or ultrawide settings; achieving over 100 FPS at ultra resolution might require switching to 1080i.

GPU utilization appears at around 100%. Performance will likely drop compared to regular 4k settings; ultrawide might require 1080ti to reach 100+ FPS at ultra. Yes, a 40 FPS decrease during background testing could influence GPU load.
