Just overclock your CPU to 4Ghz and everything should be good.

It may not be your CPU but why complain over 60fps?

fx4100 is a very low end cpu. Its like entry level cpu so games like battlefield 3 will struggle on it.

No it's not lol.

Oc'ed to 4.4 ghz, and now skyrim runs from 70-100 fps

Did you use stock cooler?
When I try to OC mine to 4.4 (I've read that it can be done with stock settings, just changing the multiplier) I always get ILLEGAL SUMMOUT on Prime95.
