What's the situation now on 120Hz recording in games and elsewhere?

Hi
This topic will be mostly about gaming, cause camera recording can have issues with blur (shutter speed settings etc.)
Youtube only allows to get 120fps by a trick. Record in slow motion, upload as 60fps at 50% speed, and the viewer sets the playback speed to 2.0x
Tried googling for some content but
It's really hard to find anything.
Help me get up to date
1. Is there a way to record 120fps easily using hardware integrated in GPU, so good image quality and almost no CPU performance degradation?
2. If so, which cards allow for that?
3. If my ancient graphics card doesn't support it, what's the chance for CPU?
- Is it possible to record uncompressed video during gaming, to encode it later on? If yes, does it work with SSDs or it still requires a RAM disk? (Tried long time ago, good SATA SSD was capable of 300MB/s write speed but it didn't work even at 540p at 70MB/s)
- if it's doable, does it require certain specs, like 6core would work, but 4 cores not etc?
Then of course. Higher refreshrates. Not sure if framerate is capped by hardware or it's technically possible to record at any framerate as long as software allows for that and it's within bandwidth capabilities of the hardware.
