The video card is decent, but the CPU is holding you back. The minimum requirements are for playing on the lowest settings possible remember.

The game should run plenty fine on that 7600GT, it ran very smooth on my 6800GT/3GHz Smithfield.

Update the game, run as little as possible in the background & keep the drive well defragged.

As I know hyper-threading doesn't improve performance in gaming.

It just improves performance in multi-tasking, video editing and other applications.

The game lags when I turn everything to the max, including AA. Just turn down the AA or other things until you get better FPS. As well, shutdown any program that takes a lot of system resources, like Norton Antivirus.
