I'm having an issue while playing World of Warcraft where while in a more intense setting my FPS drops from 60 down to 25ish a

Solution
After doing a quick search, your processor should not bottleneck a 660. WoW does rely partially on cpu power (ever so slightly more than some games) But a 660ti should not be able to do 60fps on ultra consistantly (maybein dungeons, but should dip lower than that during stressful events like raids or open world roaming
even for me it wont use my gpus to their full potential, roaming around with a tone of people on ultra with my textures over ultra it will dip into the 45 range . when I do like a dungeon finder i average 100 fps and my cards are actually being used.


If i remember correctly wow only uses two cpu cores?

Hmm shouldn't the 660ti be able to do 60fps on ultra consistently? I have friends running 660s that have no issues, however they also have i7 3770k processors. Could mine be bottle necking?
