Rules
-
Be civil. Uncivil language, slurs, and insults will result in a ban. If you can't say something respectfully, don't say it at all.
-
No Unoriginal Sources, Referral links or Paywalled Articles.
-
All posts must be related to Intel or Intel products.
-
Give competitors' recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.

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.

Dual channel RAM will help with "CPU" bottlenecks, what type of RAM are we talking about (DDR4/5 and what speed?). What kind of storage are you using? Is resizable BAR enabled in the BIOS? High framerates but weird long pauses can also be storage related if you are doing all of this on a slow SATA SSD/spinning drive depending on where your drives are installed? I also agree with the poster who indicated watch out for bloaty programs that peg system resources at inopportune times.
It’s DDR4 at 2133MHz
Oof, yea I'd say looking at a dual channel kit of faster RAM would be worth your time, something like this 16 gb (8x2) PC3600/CL16 kit is just $50: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07X8DVDZZ
