SSD for fast booting, if you have a large enough SSD games will run better on it too.

SSD that's probably the main reason you have one.

An AMD cpu has no place in a solely gaming build, end of.

I3 4150, Intel HD graphics, corsair CX750M, 4gb ram, Asus H81M-E, corsair 230T, Intel stock cooler WD Green 2TB Gigabyte 550TI

Why you shouldn't trust Gpu or Cpu boss Click on this I dare you!

SSD - faster transfer rates, increased responsiveness, faster boot time and installations, etc.
