Even with optifine and some setting turned down (fast graphics, 8 render distance), I generally get no more than 10 FPS. and this is with nothing but optifine. I have an Nvidia Quadro K620m dedicated card, and the rest of my specs are attached.

First of all, ghz isn't what represents how good a cpu is...
Intel used to name their cpus after ghz but as new tech and such came out, it wasn't a good way to represent a core, so they use the "i" branding.
With new tech like a turbo clock of 3ghz and hyperthreading, it's plenty. It is perfect for gaming, not high end, but med to low end like mine craft. But of course, this is modded so some factors might apply so lets get down to the gc.
The gc doesn't play a huge role to mine craft even with mods unless you have like 100. and this "workstation" card you speak of is not the best but is known to run games. Why would the desighners bind it with Optimus, PhysX, CUDA, OpenCL, 3D Vision, 3DTV Play and more? Why DX 11? These features are almost useless for a normal user except for animation or development and...gaming
you know what the best thing in optifine is (for you at the moment)? the fact that authors bothered to type explanations for most options. if you spend 10 minutes setting the options while reading the tooltips, you should be able to squeeze out enough fps.
in my experience, however, the problem is elsewhere - take a screenshot of processes page in task manager and paste it here. if you shut down pointless apps (drivers usually install tweak apps these days) and pause the antivirus and other maintenance while playing, you should be able to play with a render distance of 10 and faithful 32 pack.
in fact you entire system will be faster when you disable all those updaters/launchers/junk that selfish developers bundle with their installations. want a new version of chrome/java/whatever? you can install it yourself. no need for auto-updaters to eat your system resources, regardless of how strong the machine is.
also, search the internet for which services to keep running and which to disable.
make sure you have set your java arguments in your minecraft client many forget or don't bother but when java is configured for your system you will see a huge difference also don't add to much ram for vanilla about 2Gb is just right and for modded about 4Gb is the sweet spot as too much ram will cause issues as well

Not sure of its performance very well but it can definitely run MC. Not sure of mods.
So, ill ask,
Can you check when mc is running whether you have a serious bottleneck with the gc?
How much ram have you allocated?
log?

Until we know what this guy has, im not sure 'bout the GC
I'm sorry if i sounded a little aggressive.
