The 5600x is the latest generation, the 3700x is the previous generation, so do you take a past generation or a present generation

As i said earlier if you go up to the 5800x (next step up), you'll then need to upgrade the motherboard and the cooler

Is there any other changes you would make like a 2nd m.2 ssd or changing something

depends on if you've got the budget, if so i'd add a 500GB 980 M.2 or if you can't stretch to the 980, then look at a 500GB firecuda, this would be for your OS, then games would go on the 670 that you've already got in the spec
