If you're using windows vista, and vista detects that the machine is getting a little warm, vista will underclock your cpu in an attempt to reduce temperatures.

power options->advanced->processor power management->minimum processor state.
you may wish to change that setting.

Do you have vid_vsync set to 1 or 0? On my PC vid_vsync 1 gives input lag... but my PC is MUCH worse than yours, so it may not be the case. Also, you may wish to set cl_max fps to some stable high value. You won't notice the difference in fps, and it will give your mouse more fluid movement. Try different process priority settings, on some machines high isn't the best option.
