CPU will probably bottleneck the 5070 ti. If it has any hope to keep up the cpu will be pusbing its 150 watt limit so its not accomplishing much.
Why pick the 5th fastest GPU and pair it with the 50th fastest CPU? Makes zero since.

Basically the GPU needs the CPU to send it instructions. These high end GPUs can do the work faster than some CPUs can tell them what.
Imagine 1 boss telling 100 really dumb workers each task they need to do. By time he has told the 100th worker what to do, the first few have completed their task and waiting on boss to start the next job.
Pretty much the difference in GPU and CPU. CPU has several brains and few muscles, GPU has thousands of dumb but strong workers. You need both to work balanced or one is under performing

My Timespy score is: 26,648 and the CPU only reached 68c. (CPU score is 17,140).
Geekbench scores are 2,887- single core and 18,953-multicore
Novabench CPU score was 3,676.
I upgraded from a i711700KF which had massive overheating issues and I'll take the very quiet and cool laptop CPU all day after the research I did on it. Every single benchmark is at least double my previous "desktop" CPU. I also use this system for Lightroom and Topaz software which typically bakes the processor, but on this system, the times are significantly better. On my previous CPU, it would throttle down significantly to keep from overheating during those tasks.
