Should I get 240 gb SSD https://www.links.hr/hr/ssd-240-0-gb-western-digital-green-wds240g2g0b-m-2-2-5-545-mb-s-051400582 (on sata 2 mobo)

or a cpu cooler: https://www.links.hr/hr/cooler-arctic-cooling-freezer-34-esports-duo-s-1150-1151-1155-1156-2011-2011-3-2066-am4-bijeli-050903388 (for overclocking)

 

I cannot decide, now I have 85C (max temperature while gaming) temperature with i5 750 OC'd to 3.9 ghz with LL-CC-95 cooler while in game example: overwatch, or should I buy SSD so my whole pc is faster?

I would get the cooler because you're getting pretty toasty and likely throttling around 85c.  I would get an SSD after you up to a ryzen 5 2600/mobo/ram.  The ssd would help with transfer speeds, load times, and boot times.  However, heat and other performance aspects are your issues right now.

yea my load times and boot times take ages

Well, I still would get the cooler first.  If you want you could get the SSD linked above next then go ryzen after.  Or, lower your oc a bit, just get the ssd, and then up to ryzen.  Also, I'm not sure if your mobo supports m.2.  So, you might need a sata one like the one aezakmi linked.

is it worth going from 3.9 ghz to 3.6 ghz? for temps

the cooler will be kind of pointless if you upgrade to ryzen this year
