Well you definitely have bottleneck from your cpu so only thing you can do is to buy a better one,and also make sure you don't have anything running in the background while playing and try to play with resolution scaling a bit it might help to reduce cpu bottledneck a bit but it will increase gpu usage also.

That will definitely increase your performance and if you have money see if you can buy some aftermarket cooler for that cpu so you can overclock it and make your PC more future proof :)
