CPU upgrade will be the only thing to consider at the moment if you really wish to move forward but as above mentioned this system is still capable of handling almost everything without some of those AAA topics. I should say just wait couple of moths until Ryzen 3 rd gen come out.

DDR5 isn't a thing yet. All current platforms use DDR4, which would require a new CPU, motherboard, and the ram. In titles that take advantage of the extra threads, an upgrade to a current gen i7, or a Ryzen 7, would prove beneficial. For most games, not so much.

Well you can change the CPU and motherboard if you rly want to but its not necessary, And you can upgrade the SSD to a 500GB ot 1 TB but again its not necessary. Its a really good PC and it will do for a long time.
