I'm not really an expert, but i believe you should upgrade your graphics card. The CPU usage didn't change too much, afaik, apart from new pathfinder (which is even better effective) and DyDo AI (which was removed in the latest release, and which was a lot more CPU-intensive).
Also, if you were playing multiplayer, then that's the real price you pay for perfect sync (in 2.3.8, the game is fast, but everybody sees a completely different/desynced situation on his screen; that's not what you want, really), so you might need to upgrade the internet connection to play the game as it was *always* supposed to be played (i.e., fairly), and everybody should do that too. And the new net code is something nobody will want to undo, i mean it. Unlike graphics. In this case you just have to admit that you never played a normal 6-player game anyway.
