Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I was wondering if this is normal...
Considering YouTube and Twitch can't show greater than 60 fps, there's really not much point to going higher unless you're trying to get higher quality slow-mo footage.
If you're still thermal throttling, you may want to consider 30 fps.
fast is still consider intensive encoding, so if you want to record higher fps you need to use veryfast. Without hardware based codec everything will be running on CPU so it's normal to go full steam.
If you can enable hardware encoding it will help. If you can't you could just compress less so it uses way more storage, but les compute power.
