Should we upgrade the CPU?
Hey! Let's see... you've got a solid setup with the R5 2600x, 16GB Tforce 3200, RX590, B450 Aorus M, and an M.board B450 Aorus M plus an extra 1TB HDD. You used it for gaming and architectural design with tools like AutoCAD, ArchiCAD, SketchUp, and Lumion.
If you're thinking about upgrading in late 2018, it could be a good time. But if you're aiming for something more powerful, the R4000 series with a B550 chipset might offer better performance for your workloads. Just keep in mind your current needs and whether you want to stick with gaming or expand into more demanding architecture tasks.
Don't upgrade the CPU. It's better to wait for a 2070 Super or 5700 XT.
If it functions properly or you prefer not to enhance performance, then upgrading isn't necessary.
