Well you are running 7700K, that is your bottleneck.

Just to put that into perspective. I've had 5800X and scored around 14800 in 3dmark Port Royal, moved to 5800X3D and that score jumped to 15800. And port royal doesn't output CPU score, that was just the improvement from changing the CPU.
I second that it seems that Pcie 3.0 and older chipset isnt any good match for newer AMD GPUs https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/new-gpu-less-fps.304020/ OP is haveing same performance isue with a 6750 gpu.

I think that the newer AMD gpus need SMART and a faster bus speed due to design

Yeah forgot that SAM also comes into play. I think Resizeable bar is not supported on that platform, so that's where the low performance comes from.
And it's a Nitro card so to get its full potential new CPU will be needed.
It's a lie that as long as you game at 4K, CPU doesn't matter much. It matters a lot.

Except this benchmark, with the 4090 and the i7-7700K shows Warzone running at 145 FPS

Ah yeah, my bad

Except it doesn't show i7 7700K from Intel, but Ryzen 7700X from AMD.
So which one you've got?
But even still. The FPS achieved with an i7-13700K is not double that of an i7-7700K.
And we can see from those benchmarks that the different CPUs had no effect on the average FPS achieved. They're all at 145.

Yes because they're all high end last gen CPU. You are running a 6 years old one, with a top of the line, latest GPU. There will be bottlenecks, not only at 1080p but also at higher res.
Use the quick example I showed. Run Port Royal in 3dmark and see what score it will give. I've had 5800X which is still good for gaming, but even then when moved to X3D one, my score jumped 1000.
Games today require good CPU, no matter at what res. We have Denuvo on top of it all running in the background, lowering CPU performance in almost every game.

EDIT

Also like I wrote before you cannot enable Resizeable bar on that chipset. That also boosts performance. Long story short, you have one of the best GPUs on the market, with really old CPU.
CPUs really are getting a lot better every genertion, so while sometime ago 6 years old CPU might not be old, now it really is.

Update: Can confirm, upgrading entire PC seemed to do the trick

I have a similar issue with my 9700k. Seeing not as much of a performance increase with my upgrade from a 3070 to a 7900xtx as i would have liked. So I'm waiting on the new x3d cpus and will probably do my upgrade then of a new system. The 7800x3d is looking like a good buy. Especially when considering how good the 5800x3d was in gaming performance. RIP wallet tho
I'm also running my games from an old hdd which has like 400 read/write which is also probably causing alot of stuttering. Especially in the beginning of my games.
Hopefully i will see the same uplift as you got from your upgrade
