What the fuck is up with Skyrim?

I started it up vanilla last night, and here's the problem:

It's laggy as fuck? I run:

Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2500S CPU Quad Core
CPU speed: 2.70 GHz
Video Card: AMD Radeon HD 6700M Series
16 GB RAM
2560x1440 monitor
64-bit Windows 7 (Premium Home Edition)

I top out at 30 FPS. (On Low...) At those specs shouldn't I get a fairly decent FPS rate? (For a game on Low made in 2011...)
