No discussion imo. An SSD disk can only improve the game if the threaded data loader does not work (which may be true now, but they will fix that). That CPU should also be OK but overclockling won't hurt. I vote 100% on a new GPU. 560ti if you are on a budget seems like a good advice as mentioned before in this thread.

I've had SSD disks in my two latest laptops and they are great for that as the disk is really the weak spot of a laptop. I love the Dell 6520 Sandy Bridge laptop with an SSD disk I just got at work, but at home my Raptor is just fine. Games should not load data continously so the IO-speed should really just be good for loading a map faster. If it gets suck waiting for for IO to often they have to pre-load more, and then RAM or VRAM is the issue as all disks are dinosaurs compared to those. So stuttering from a slow disk will just make those rare "hickups" a bit longer on a well optimized game, but for the "bread and butter" raw fps you need a good GPU on a game that is not CPU limited (which CoD does not seem to be - TODAY!)
