Hell yes. An Intel i7 860 2.80 Ghz is nothing at this point. The architecture is ancient. You are definitely hitting a CPU bottleneck.
As "quad core", that doesn't matter much. Just ask the poor guys that bought 8 core bulldozers.
Sorry to hear that, but thanks for the much needed advice. I noticed that my GTX 780 was not running as fast as benchmarks said it should, either.
Too bad I have to upgrade the motherboard. Is it really such a painful process?
