Looking for second opinions and advice before I purchase parts for a new build.

The i7-13700K has a bit better performance than the i9-12900KS and is substantially less expensive.
It's unlikely the ETS-F40 would handle the 241W Max Turbo Power of the i9-12900KS without throttling the CPU.
New cpu coolers come with pre-applied or a tube of thermal compound. There usually isn't a need for more.
Consider a PSU that directly supports the new 12VHPWR connector used by next gen Nvidia GPU.
The product page of G.Skill memory kits has a motherboard QVL tab.
