Greetings (my first post).
In games such as Quake III Arena, there are other very important factors to consider regarding smoothness, such as the mouse's sampling rate and sensitivity. Since you directly control the ingame POV with your mouse, it is imperative that your input is in sync with the video. Since high performance mice have high sampling rates (125hz for USB), 72 fps is simply not enough.
