Hmmm:

Seems like a lot of people are having issues with nVidia x60 cards, but only certain brands? One post says his friend's EVGA brand 760 runs great while his Zotac brand 760 runs like crap.
He said he switched to the nVidia beta drivers and had some better performance:
I'm using an eVGA brand nVidia 780. The last patch messed something up but I only see it in one specific area (walking into the church in that Cyrodiil hub). Other than that I run the game on ultra and it's usually 40+ FPS even in huge fights.
Might be something with the 600 series or the x60's in general that's having a particular problem.
Anyway, try the nVidia beta drivers and see if that helps.

- I'm now fairly confident that its little more than a driver issue. I decided to go ahead and install the latest beta version of the Nvidia driver for the 700 series (337.50) and I seem to have gotten an average of around 10-15 fps gains in city, and about the same outside of cities.
Before this I was running the latest recommended driver on their site(335.23) which was released on March 10th. The beta driver was released seemingly within the past 24 hours.
When installing I did it in my usual manner of running DDU, mentioned here:

And then installing the drivers. Should you choose to run this program, keep in mind that it is recommended you do it in Safe Mode and that you create a system restore point before hand.
After installing the newest beta drivers though, my fps has gone up noticeably. I would expect greater improvements as time goes on if it is just a driver issue.
I will try to get the driver version that my friend is currently using as well, and try that out to see if I see any difference, however he is currently taking care of an emergency and may be gone for over a day.
If anyone else having this issue is willing to try out the beta driver and see if it helps them as well it would be appreciated as it would help narrow down the possibility of other issues. To find the latest beta driver for Nvidia, the follow the link below and ensure the 'recommended/beta' drop-down box is set to 'Beta'

**EDIT** I should also mention that the game is now utilizing my GPU considerably more then it was previously, and very close to reaching its peak core speed.
