Im being CPU limited with a 3.6ghz C2Q!?

Today i got a new gfx card! (1gb 4870 :biggrin: ). I was going though every game on my computer, and was quite impressed until i came to oblivion. I was getting the exact same fps as i was with my 8800gt! Well one thing led to another and ive discovered that no matter what settings, resolution ect. I run at, i still get the same fps( cpu limited) :blink:. My cpu is no slouch, a 3.6 ghz q6000, and ive got 4gigs of ddr2 1066, so i am really surprised. I Monitored my cpu usage while playing and discovered that while 2 of my cores hover around 70-90percent, the other 2 are at about 10% :sick:.( my gpu usage is usually at about 65% :yucky: ) Ive got about 200+ mods running(including fcom.), so while i fully expect oblivion to tax my cpu, im fairly confident it could handle it if the game actually mutithreaded correctly.

 

 

 

So does any body know how i can reduce the load on my cpu or get oblivion to thread better? Im deleting my ini file and starting over from scratch, So it would be very helpful if anybody suggested some settings. Also does anybody know of any mods that help reduce cpu load?,or inversely, does anybody know of any mods that particularly stress the cpu?(odds are i probably have them installed :wink: )
