I have noticed that in Payday 2, even at the LOWEST settings, I get ~20-30 fps.
My specs absolutely blow the requirements out of the water.
Here they are:
Why is the game not running when I have WAY more than the specs recommended?It's not the dual core CPU, as games run faster on faster, fewer cores.

These would be 'high-end' specs if you got this computer 5-6 years ago. The computer I built January, 2008 has better performance than this.
There's little that you can do yourself to help this situation. The graphics settings are a complete joke, and likely won't help you with this. One thing that I have noticed to be a major help is to reduce your resolution. Going from 1920x1080 to 1600x900 is what jumped me from ~25FPS to ~45FPS on average.
As far as what's causing this, there's two possible bottlenecks in this:
Your CPU. This is the brain of your computer, it's what actually runs the game. A quad-core CPU is recommended, you only have a dual-core CPU. Other factors such as what brand (AMD / Intel), what generation, and what model are all going to play into how well your CPU performs.
Your GPU. This is a special unit dedicated to producing high-quality graphics. Supporting a higher version of the Pixel/Vertex shaders doesn't make it 'better'. Having more VRAM means you can use higher-quality textures. None of the specs you posted is even relevant to framerate.
It's not the dual core CPU, as games run faster on faster, fewer cores.
This is just plain wrong. While this may be true 5+ years ago, it is certainly not true now. This misconception comes from the fact that many games, especially older games, were not designed with multithreading in mind. For those games, having a faster core was more important than having more cores.
These days however, more and more games are getting the multithreading treatment. Larger game companies have larger budgets, and can afford the time and effort it takes to get the best possible performance. There's simply no excuse these days for a studio to publish a single-threaded game, especially since virtually every platform (PC, Mobile, Console) is practically designed for multithreading.
In your case, I have doubts that the CPU is an issue. This is simply based on my observations during gameplay.
PNY Quadro 2000 1GB
Here's your problem, a Quadro 2000. That's a workstation card. These cards are generally going to have terrible performance for gaming applications because they weren't designed for gaming in the first place. They were instead designed to accelerate Digital Content Creation.
Get yourself a GPU designed for gaming, and you'll get better performance when gaming.

Better Bots
It’s plenty of fun to rob banks and take hostages in the vanilla version of the game, but the right Payday 2 mods will make the experience even better. Before we continue, we recommend downloading BLT 2.0. This tool makes installing many mods a simple drag-and-drop process.
Every game has its own AI problems, and this great game is no exception. Thankfully, there’s a mod out there which provides a simple fix Better. Betters Bots makes numerous changes to the way your bot teammates interact with the world, from having bots automatically mark turrets to being able to shoot through other bots and hostages so they don’t cause any more accidental deaths. The mod also lets players customize a number of bot features, including health and movement speed.

Therefore, Tezuka chose to have Echizen as the reserve player, but kept in secret to see if he would change.When Echizen sees America's –, wanting to challenge him – defeat Yamabuki's using his destructive tennis form, Echizen had a change of heart and begged Tezuka to be on the team. Although Rikkaidai's Akaya Kirihara played Smith in the final match, Kirihara injured himself, the 'special rule' was invoked to have Echizen finish the match, which resulted in his victory and a newfound friendship with Smith.

WolfHUD
Partly a collection of other heads-up-display (HUD) mods, WolfHUD makes improvements on them as well as adding other features into the mix. For a full list of the mods WolfHUD includes, check out the download page.

Enemy Health and Info
A fairly simple and self-descriptive mod, Enemy Health and Info shows a health bar above the head of enemies you are aiming at. The name of the enemy will also appear there, and each unit’s name can actually be changed in the mod’s files. Changing the security guards’ names to “Paul Blart” is a vast improvement to the game.

Keepers
Another mod to improve your AI companions, Keepers improves things like pathfinding, taking cover, holding position, and increases general responsiveness. The mod also lets players order their companions to interact with objects that don’t require equipment. If you’re playing with bots on your team, Keepers will help keep you and your team alive long enough to get the job done and escape from the police.

Hostage Escort Tweaks
This mod improves hostages and makes them easier to handle so everyone can make it out of your heists alive. This increases the maximum distance you can be from a hostage before they lie down from 20 meters to 200 meters. It will be difficult to get 200 meters away from your hostages, however, as the mod multiplies their speed by 1.5.
Hostage Escort Tweaks also allows for three hostages to be following you at a time. Finally, you can stop killing innocents because they’re too difficult to deal with, and instead focus on getting the money and getting out.

Smokin’ Barrels
Okay, so this mod doesn’t change up any of the gameplay or make your bot companions more bearable in the game, but Smokin’ Barrels does increase the amount of smoke coming out of the barrels of guns, and what’s more important than that? It’s often the attention to detail that draws people into game worlds, and the smoke effects aren’t just cool, they’re realistic.

Re-Texture Project – Performance & Quality
This texture mod doesn’t try to keep as close to the original as possible while making slight improvements. Instead, it overhauls many locations in Payday 2.
Badly-textured carpets are replaced with shiny wood in some places, and in others, bland walls have been replaced with a nice brick and mortar look. It really modernizes the game, but as with HUDs, textures are often a personal preference kind of thing, so be sure to check out this comparison video before downloading the mod.

FEDNET Inventory Icons
Tired of those bland black-and-white inventory icons for your weapons and equipment? Well you’re not alone, and someone has done something about it.
FEDNET Inventory Icons replaces the monochrome icons from the vanilla Payday 2 with icons from the game’s FBI Files Database, ensuring you know exactly what you’re looking at in your inventory.

Restoration Mod
This mod overhauls many aspects of the game and also adds new units. Not only does it rework enemy statistics and improve police AI, it also changes player weapon statistics, player character statistics, and makes changes to progression.
On top of the changes it makes, Restoration Mod adds new enemies like the Grenadier, who uses teargas to try and smoke you and your thief friends out of hiding. There are too many changes and additions in this mod to list them all here, so be sure to check out the download page to see every modification it makes.

Press-2-Hold Standalone
Last but not least, though perhaps the simplest mod on this list, Press-2-Hold gets rid of the need to hold down buttons while interacting with objects.
No more holding down the interact key for seemingly forever while you pick a lock, now you just need to tap the key once and the game will do its thing while you sip on your drink or clean crumbs out of your keyboard. Want to stop in the middle of picking that lock? Just press G to cancel the interaction. Like I said, simple.
