Sounds like your cpu is bottlenecking the card i had a similar problem with my old 4800 amd dual core, putting a triple/quad core in will unlock a lot more of the card especially nowadays when 8/10 pc games are console ports and the 360 uses a triple core cpu inside.

Games run much better with more than 2 cores now and unless its a pc only title you'll probably not see much optimisation with new games, anything above 30+fps is still really playable.
