It would be a great upgrade, although I'd check the R5 2600.

That's good enough I guess (although there are cheaper ones on Aliexpress but that's a risk I guess) 

Again, checking the benchmarks, it's 10% better across  the board from your current processor, and performs 30-40% more on some aspects. So that's good.
