CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

Is my ram bottlenecking my i9-13900k with z690-P d4 (alien.top)

I currently have 3200 MHZ CL16

Would I see 10-20% fps increase if I upgrade to 4000MHZ CL18?

I know my ram is definitely bottlenecking because on an extremely cpu and ram intensive game I get 90 fps on 3200 mhz but when I push it to 3600 MHZ I get 120 fps

I’m just wondering with the shitter timings of a CL18 would I see a significant difference between 4000mhz cl18 and 3600mhz c16 the way I do when I over clock my 3200 to 3600

If that makes sense.

On one hand, there's a high probability that you won't experience such a significant increase in productivity at 4000, as the improvement from 3200 to 3600 could bring you close to a high watermark. On the other hand, for your i9-13900K setup with 3200 memory, if feasible, consider upgrading both the memory and the motherboard. You can obtain approximate information on 3dmark.com by exploring various configurations with your CPU. Here's an example of a filter:
