The cpu speed makes a huge difference in all applications not just games. Downside it that most people simply don't have the time or talent to overclock correctly.
The gains from running more than 4GB ram are there to be had but getting 8GB to run in some systems will cause more problems than they will solve in most cases.
SSD's have plenty of problems that go along with them, they are still in the experimental stage as far as I'm concerend. No doubt they will get better as the firmware gets perfected.
