Realize that Frost is getting heavy nerfs today to where it will likely be quite a bit behind 2h Unholy.
So if you want to do maximum DPS with a 2h build you have to spec Unholy.

those nerfs were hot fixed if you didn't read patch notes....
+ i hate unholy
also its not such a big nerf , and im sure i'll still beat unholy dk's on dps

Knowing your rotation, a good latency, and spamming your keybind instead of pressing them once can indeed assure you'll beat MOST unholy deathknights. However, you should consider going dual wield, especially if you dont pvp - it is going to be far ahead. Probably not for long, though, so you can also just sit and wait for the nerfs.
Btw, is that 13k single target?

14 - 15k single target last night, using keybinds, but no macro's so still hitting each button individually ... average latency is around 300 ms as i live in South Africa.... i do far less dps with dual wield even with equal level weapons.... on trash it varies between 16k and 20k dps, if its a large pull i can do almost 30k
but then the tanks dont normally hold aggro so i dont go all out...
also i prefer BIG hits to lots of small ones... had a 50k obliterate last night ^^

Hitting each button individually is normal, lol. What kind of macros would you use, castsequence? Thats only negative for your dps. Your spec looks fine, and your dps is very good for your gear aswell. Actually, I'm proud that theres still good dk's out there :) If you do far less dps with DW(I'll assume youve specced to a DW spec for it) try using Frost Presence as DW, I've found that on lower gear levels and non-perfect fights it still trumps Unholy Presence. But its also fine if you prefer 2h(although with 4.2 DW will have an advantages)
Btw, DW hits as hard if not harder than 2h :) Just gotta get an addon that merges the MH and OH attacks into one number.

Hmmm, well i've tried using both frost and unholy presence in both specs, but as faras it goes im using frost in my 2hander spec, doing more dps on boss fight, on smaller things i tend to use unholy... but i quite enjoy playing 2hander frost, more fun for me personally....
if i want to duel wield i'll get a warr or enhance shammy lol ^^
