And for CPU it would be best to wait for another step improved Zen3. Though that board doesn't have good chances for getting Zen3 BIOS support. Only MSI has announced Zen3 support for B450/X470 boards. (Asrock and Gigabyte are meh for that idea and Asus just wants to sell new boards) But SSD is really small and just can't hold big modern games. Unless fitting one besides Windows is OK... So that woudl be one thing to upgrade.

Are you having issues with any games in particular, or running a certain task on your PC? Staring me in the face as EsaT mentions, is the small SSD. I'd get a nice M2 NVMe drive if you can.
