As per i know SSD will only increase windows boot time, response time and games loading time, SSD won't affect the FPS of games instead will help in faster loading of textures and overall fast game loading but not increase FPS, it will solve/reduce problems like slutter, basically it will improve your load times in games.

As per the low FPS in games on decade old games i suggest you to check your temps maybe your laptop is overheating which is limiting the performance of CPU and GPU in that case you will need a re-paste and fan cleaning, and i hope you play while being plugged in, as i have the same exact model as yours and for me Rx560 x does not work at full capacity while the charger is not connected. See if anything helps. if not then we will find another way.

so before the SSD upgrade games were running fine is that want you to say? did you yourself upgraded SSD ? u add the SSD in M.2 slot that is inside the laptop (so that now you have HDD + SSD config) or replaced your HDD with a SSD ?

Please post your specs here and i hope when you added it yourself you did not damaged the motherboard i am not professional in the motherboard stuff, so maybe try reinstalling the windows ?

alright so now get the latest drivers (latest windows update, VGA update, BIOS update, and all other drivers) and the follow the guide below.
if nitrosense is showing Discrete GPU idle then that means the games are using vega 8 to play games not Rx560x so follow the guide below to fix it also what does task manager shows ? does task manager too shows Rx560 x as Idle or low usage

Most of the problems I have encountered answering questions similar to yours are that users do not have the GPU set up correctly in the Control Center and are gaming on their Dedicated Vega 8 GPU which gives poor performance and is not designed for gaming. I have your exact model and my gaming experience using the AMD 2020 Control Center is good, Follow these instructions

First make sure you game with your battery charged to 100% BEFORE gaming and KEEP plugged into the main AC power while gaming. Make sure "High Performance when on AC", is selected in your Windows Power Plan and in Nitrosense. If you fail to do this your CPU will run at around 50% of capacity and you will experience poor game performance

Open the New AMD 2020 Control Center and click the GAMING tab then click the 3 dots in the upper right hand corner and select ADD A GAME, navigate to your games .exe file and double click it to add it, or you can select SCAN FOR GAMES and let the Control Center search your harddrive for games to add. After successfully adding the game click on the game and you will be taken to another window and click the LAUNCH GAME tab.
Only in this way will your games use the Discrete Rx560x GPU, NEVER launch your game through a desktop shortcut or any other way, do it in the manner I have described.

Please remember that online gaming may experience low fps and stutter due to the games servers and bottlenecking and that has nothing to do with your GPU.

PLEASE CLICK YES IF I HAVE ANSWERED YOUR QUESTION, THANKYOU
