I'm surprised your i950 is at @4.5Ghz still 100%.
Can you turn on hyperthreading to test ?
Using my i970 (6+6 cores) I have < 10% load on decoding h264 1080p60 with software lav decoder.
The benchmark says 360 fps average on same h264 1080p60..
This is all with hyperthreading on and put the number of threads on 12 in LAV-video.

i970@3.6 / Rampage III extreme / 24GB DDR3@2000Mhz / GTX 570 (very similar as yours )
