Advanced users • RPi5 Active Cooler and Official Case are less than useful???

I have an RPi5 with the active cooler and official case.
I am doing some video streaming (PiCam3 and a USB cam) so the load on the RPi is moderate
Htop shows one of the CPUs at about 80% utilization and the other 3 in the mid-20s
Load average = 1.72 1.76 1.74

Yet the fan seems to be blowing **constantly** at max rpm (~7300) and the cpu temperature (based on `vcgencmd measure_temp`) is 68.6C!

Are the fan and large heat sink doing anything????

This seems quite hot for what is supposed to be an active cooler custom designed by RPi for their own boards!
