I put my operating system on the SSD (as should everyone) and then some programs I use often, like web browsers, VLC media player, mail, steam etc. Â I also put a couple games on the SSD, ones I use often. Â You don't really see a performance bump in the games but for something like Eve Online where I'm alt tabbing and checking websites while playing etc. it runs really smooth.Â
Any that traditionally take a long time to open or load. Games and Adobe products come to mind.General_X

i put one in my GF's PC, and it helped Borderlands 2 boot speed and her photoshoping by A LOT. she loads teh game and maps about 5-10 seconds faster then my pc (she has an i7 920, 12gb RAM and a GTX 275, so not much different to mine). Photoshop now no longer seizes up on massive pictures as she draws them
