That's the kicker: do you really need that performance?
Tangentially: is it worth the premium and the much shorter life?

Typically, more RAM is a better investment than replacing the system 
drive with flash.  If you do go the SSD route then more RAM is going to 
mean less paging which means longer life for the SSD.  Either way, more 
RAM is the first step.
