I'll start with the PC specs:
Intel Core i3-2100 @ 3.1 Ghz Sandy Bridge
2 x 4 GB Patriot RAM @ 1333 Mhz
GTX 660 Factory Over Clocked to 1652 memory and 1046 engine (1111 Boost)
Seagate 500 GB HDD 7200 RPM
Antec Earthwatts 500 watt Power Supply (2 years old ~)
Some El-cheapo Intel Mobo Socket 1155 ( 1 PCI-e socket )
Cooler Master Mid-Tower case ( well ventilated; one exhaust fan )
My problem is in Tera when the going gets tough, the fps gets going. In heavily populated areas fps drops to 15ish +/- . On the other hand, 95% of the time, the FPS will be 40-70+ which is great. But I'm particularly annoyed in PvP battlegrounds when you've got 25 vs 25 in a siege battle. I need those fps's man . Here's a screenshot of myself in a heavily populated area in Tera online experiencing abnormally low fps. I've been standing here taking readings for about 20 minutes. I have GPU-z, RealTemp, and Task Manager open.

Edit: I forgot to add that GPU and CPU Utilization is relatively low, so I can't figure out what's holding me back.
