Greetings. What are you looking to improve with your PC?

I was looking to improve overall performance and fps.

You'd be looking at video card for improvements like that, you already have an i7 processor which should be fine for any sort of gaming.

Fortnite is supposed to get around 200 fps on a 3060. maybe you could describe the problem a little better as it may be something set up wrong instead of needing new parts.

I was just wondering what parts I would need to upgrade in order to get stable 240 fps in the game.

You can look into two things really: lower the settings of the game to achieve higher frame rate, or look into a higher-end video card.

Use GeForce Experience to show the overlay while playing. Then you can see CPU vs GPU utilization. The one that is running at high utilization while the other is not, that is the one to upgrade.
You have the 'K' version of the CPU, is the boost overclocking enabled? Probably GPU will show up on overlay as the one with highest utilization. 3060 TI is really good but asking for 240 fps is a heavy workload.

I'd make sure any other background programs are closed, and kill off any Windows services you don't absolutely need in Computer Management (stop them and set them to either manual or disabled instead of automatic.)
https://github.com/DaddyMadu/Windows10GamingFocus/ This might help too, but beware it could also potentially harm your system if you don't know what you're doing. Open source so you can review the code, but open source doesn't always mean it's safe either.
Also no matter what you do ensure any data precious to you is backed up before trying anything too extreme.
Best of luck.
