The SSD allows for faster access to data (i.e. programs on the drive, startup for windows, etc). The RAM and processor are more for multitasking and are more involved in the actual performance of various programs when running.

What is your OS and how much RAM does the laptop have? I'd agree with others that your system is probably bogged down with unnecessary software. Do you have anti-virus and/or anti-malware software? If you use it for mostly web browsing, there is a chance you have some spyware/malware or maybe a virus hogging resources.

Scan your PC, clean it up, then use disk defrag, delete some unused programs and features, then see how it runs. If it's still sluggish, it may be time for an upgrade, but I don't think the SSD will really help you that much. Likely the only difference you will see is that Windows loads almost instantly on startup. Not to mention, SSD's are expensive...
