from a p4 it would be a huge improvement. SSD's are fast, but if you are willing to wait I really think they will drop in price come spring time. I always try to plan my new builds in January and start to buy the new stuff when the new stuff hits the market early spring and the older stuff drops in price. I also would consider overclocking a budget system. You can get away and save lots of money and have a safe stable system very easily. Hell, I have been runing a E4300 at 3.4ghz for 2 years now with no problems.
