JC, Re: Gamers who play to win deathmatches often use this setting, I'm told, because they get the smoothest frame rate

That's true. But if the theoretical possible framerate is above the monitor refresh rate (i.e. 100 or 120 Hz) there's no point in having a higher framerate because all frames can't be displayed anyway. I don't know what the minimal framerate is at 640x480 e.g. with a 1.2 GHz Thunderbird but if it's above the monitor refresh rate a P4 wouldn't give any advantage.
