I have an i7-4770k, with 8 or 16gb of DDR3 RAM, Asus Maximus VI Hero board, Geforce 660 superclocked GPU.
I was wondering if this is any good? Because I'm still unable to obtain 60 fps on maximum setting. Is it the GPU that's holding me back?

I have the 3570k (4.3GHz), 8GB 1866mhz, 670GTX , Z77 Sabertooth and I'm reaching constant 60FPS at max settings. My FPS will drop when there are a lot of players (Mor Dhona), or when there are a lot of graphic effects occurring.
The 'weakest' hardware I'm looking at is your videocard right now. You can upgrade to a 770GTX, or if you can find a 670GTX for a cheap price, I'd definitely go for that still! If you can manage holding off, I'd wait and see what the 2 giant manufacturers (AMD/Nvidia) have to offer this year.
Thank you. I made a mistake and upgraded my 460 to 660 couple months ago. So I'm kinda sad that it's not that big of an improvement. Cuz a friend of mine with 660 TI is running way better than I do
Unfortunately, chip/platform revisions are only about a 10% boost in performance, so you got about 20% there.
That said, anywhere but Mor Dhona or CT you should be getting 60 pretty easily with a 660. Might want to make sure you have it set in your motherboard manufacturers recommended PCI-E slot, re-install drivers/default settings, etc. etc.
