Hey folks

 

So I was wondering is there any type of list out there of games with loading times which strongly benefit from SSD storage. I recently moved GTA Online from the SSD back onto the HDD and actually noticed no real increase in load times (which I assume are primarily net based). However I have found that WoW and Bethesda games load times benefit greatly from being on SSD. It would be great if some sort of list could be compiled showing what games require SSD storage the most.

CSGo, LoL, BF4 loads a lot faster for me. GTA 5 is indeed internet based so having it on SSD doesnt benefit shit :(

Rule of thumb, look for games with huge, open worlds. The reason why you saw an improvement in GTA Online is because it needs to load big files. Some good games for your SSD are: Sleeping Dogs, Witcher III, anything in the Far Cry series, Just Cause 3, etc.
