In urban areas such as Markarth and Whiterun, I suspect my CPU is limiting performance. Upgrading to an I5-4690K might help.

Because AI relies on CPU power, and those urban areas have the highest population density, it seems the CPU is the issue (unless you're using 4K textures).

The new CPU looks promising. I’m going ahead because my brother wants to sell it, and a motherboard for £130 is a good deal.

It's a solid 4690k processor, and at 130£ it's a reasonable investment.

Just confirming, have you adjusted your frame rate? I noticed problems where the loading screen and character would render at high speeds—over 300fps during loading, filling the buffer completely. Once the city loads, the GPU performance improved significantly, staying around 80fps or higher.
