The larger the frame the more CPU power required. The higher the frame rate the more CPU power required. But you have fixed source signals. 1280x720p60, or 1920x1080i30. Unless you want to step down to 720x480.
I don't know if you can try a different codec.
HuffYUV (if you can use it) might be less CPU intensive but it doesn't compress as much as MJPEG. So disk I/O might become a bottleneck instead.
Audio usually isn't much of an issue but capture uncompressed for the least CPU usage.
