My existing build is starting to annoy me with its long boot up time and sluggish opening of programs, the system specs are

i5 3570k @ 4.0ghz
Gigabyte Z77-D3h
16gb 1600mhz Corsair Vengeance
R9 290 with eyefinity running on 3 monitors
Corsair RM 650

my current legit copy of windows is installed on a 5400rpm hdd, which i intend to keep for storage purposes. my question is, how do i transfer my windows to the SSD without a fresh install/ what options are open to me, i don't particularly wish to wipe the pc and id prefer a method that leaves my pc as similar as it is now without the need to start reinstalling programs left right and centre,

thanks.

Most new SSDs come with cloning softwares, or you can just download one, and clone the Windows to the SSD.
