I seriously dubt that main memory latency and bandwidth is the performance bottleneck for many games. Even for loading it wouldn't be particularly useful compared to storing the game in RAM because now you'd be limited by PCIe bandwidth. Maybe with horribly optimized games that do a lot of random random reads during load it would help, but that's pushing it. Now the GPU side on the other hand could be interesting.
