Ssds are way faster at everything since they don't use a mechanical reader that moves around to read from different sectors of the disk so an ssd's seek time is way faster than an hdds. Also ssds have faster write and read speeds.
The difference is like between day and night, you'll notice this by a way faster boot up, applications starting up at an instant, even while startup and background programs are starting up.
For example I have a laptop and a desktop pc. The laptop has an ssd and the desktop has multiple hdds. The desktop pc has a cpu with better performance than the laptop's, yet he laptop boots up and does everything except gaming better due to the laptop's worse graphics card.
You don't have to pay 150 euros for a 120GB ssd anymore. 120GB ssds seem to range from 50-100 euros in Finland at the moment. They used to cost around 150 euros a few years ago. The cheap ones aren't bad choises at all, the difference is still huge with them.
Since hdds are still better with price/performance ratio it is advisable to buy an ssd with a hdd and install your OS and all desktop apps (browsers for example) on to the ssd and games on to the hdd. Of course if you can fit a couple games on to your ssd and you're not a fan of loading times, sure go for it.
