You arent doing video at 70fr/s because 'video' playback is only 25fps.
No point in playing back any faster than that.
The refresh rate of the screen is not the playback rate.


Doing 3d objects is easy. Graphics cards can support millions of shaded triangles/second.
You should be able to do thousands of objects.
The problem is a control problem. And useability.
If you cant do anything useful - live - you are better off doing it in a different way.
