as you can see from my picture to yours, i'm using a custom made pc, which came pre overclocked at place of build, so it shows my core speed as 3.50Ghz but as it's overclocked it's working per core 4.17 Ghz, can do 4.2Ghz with ease but temps for 24 hours a day use made me slow it back down, as now it's steady at a lower temp than a standard non overclocked chip.
where as your's is a 2.30 Ghz model, but only running at 1.70Ghz per core, so no turbo mode then it seems, the 5960x is an epic gaming chip, try that one and see the difference

either the board or bios version or settings in bios or even windows 10 isn't using the turbo boost mode which would double the core speed and help in single and tbh multi core use imo.
with the amount of threads and handles open on the Xeon as well from the above picture, you have a lot of stuff running in the background as well, like i said, i can help with the game part and increase a % resource give back, but that would or could impact on the server workstation side of things as it's stopping and closing apps on boot and making a cleaner profile which would help this game, but maybe not the whole system for other uses, so also not recommended, no idea why this game performs any worst than any other installed either, not seen it on my tests, and i was on the beta of the game, no longer have it mind you as don't play games much anymore, only test them, and having more than a few pc's helps with this.
while the cpu cycle isn't at max in the shot above, the graph shows it has been almost maxed out when running in the last 60 seconds etc, as if you window the game and not full screen it, the game still runs while you test it, if you alt tab in and out, it's drops or lessons the amount of cpu use while minimized etc.
just to prove a point, 3 steam games loaded and alt tabbed between them, showing cpu and memory use, on games that do work well on multi core use, when minimized, some do some don't, not sure if it's a engine thing, a O/S thing, or settings / apps and or programs loaded etc, could be a combo on some or all of them, but it's trial and error to work out what i'm sorry to say, the developer and staff support may offer more advice on this or what to try next, but anything altered my improve the game performance but lesson the workstation side of things also, unless maybe a gaming profile is setup, so it's doesn't alter your main task etc
