A movie is 24fps for comparision).

As comparison to a game it is useless data.

That depends on the game. Not all games are action games where fast
reflexes makes a difference.

It also depends on the monitor -- if your LCD monitor can't update
faster than 25fps (like a 40ms LCD display) or even 62fps (16ms
display), it makes no difference whatsoever whether FRAPS reports 75 or
200 fps. Except that by generating all the unneccessary graphics that
is discarded, you steal resources that the game could use for other
things, like AI or pathfinding.

Stop waffling. Just because 24fps appears smooth to you in a movie
doesn't mean it will in a game too. In fact it doesn't.
