While you will find that going from HDD to SSD will make a HUGE difference in performance (and note that manufacturers like Seagate and Western Digital have their own free utilities to clone your HDD to the new SSD), you may find while waiting for your new disk, try removing the AVG anti-virus utility, and replace it with, say MalwareBytes (an excellent AV product). I have found that AVG creates LOTS of unnecessary bloat and unwanted services that can cripple performance. Use task manager to check this, you will be surprised to see high CPU and Disk utilization.
NOTE: I would advise against using AVG tune up utllities, or anything that touches the OS or the registry.
