I beleive there might have been a bit of both, I was having video card error trying to load OBS at a similar point in time.

*edit* OS updated gain and things seem more stable. I also disabled my second monitor and tried a test record and it went well. Thanks for having a look at this.

How do I ...

No. no overclocking going on.

It only seems to be when I am recording with OBS. I just played for an hour or two while not recording and it was fine.

Hi there. I'm running Factorio 0.17 on Linux (POP OS!) and it has been working fine. Recently I started to notice that after a few minutes the game would lag out and then crash.
