I can't say I've heard anyone claim that installing games on a SSD over a HDD has caused a jump in performance (frames per second) in games. Anything I do find asking a similar question says no to very little performance (fps) improvement.
I've heard people say they've noticed reduced loading time in games between menus and such, but not actual performance. I don't recall getting a fps performance increase in games when I moved to a SSD, though I wasn't doing a comparison when I went from a HDD to SSD so maybe there was and I just never noticed it.

I don't normally read through tweaktown, but I came across the link at another forum I browse through from time to time and I was curious if it was true. Does anyone have any actual data to back this up or heard of similar performance increases? Me, I'm too short of time to install Windows on an HDD, install games on it and then test a them, then to swap in a SSD, install the same games on it and test them again.
