Currently I'm running a 1TB Samsung F3 and a 2TB Seagate drive for storage. I'm fed up with how my HDD is the only bottleneck in my system and plan to purchase a SSD. Now what I want to do is perform a clean install of Windows and re-install all my apps onto the new SSD; however, I want to boot all my games from the Samsung F3 since loads are already fast enough. I have roughly 250GB of games, so if possible, I'd like to keep them on the F3 without re-installing them. Is this possible, and since I won't game with the SSD, would the 64GB be fine?

Yes its all possible, and yes 64GB is enough. Just follow Sean's SSD guide (mainly parts 1-4 on it). It's just a few minor things to tweak on the OS, and it'll make that 64GB stretch a lot further.
