...I am running on a 3630QM intel chip and the game auto allocates to the first core for the bulk of the load and then never goes above 18% while hardly using the other cores at all...
If you're not even seeing near-100% usage on one core, then the problem almost certainly is due to a bottleneck elsewhere on your system. Since you mention a CPU designed for mobile usage, the GPU on your laptop/netbook is most likely the cause. Verify which GPU you have and then
look it up on NoteBookCheck.
Assuming the GPU is the limitation, reducing D:OS's graphics settings to the bare minimum is the easiest fix.
