Hi /pcbg/. Planning to upgrade from a build I did back in Q2 2020 based on the advice here at the time, so thanks everyone. How's this build look? US, prices appear accurate.
Use: general browsing, Excel, and ideally upgrading to gaming at 1440p.
Elden Ring, Jagged Alliance 3, RDR, various newer RTS. My old setup with 1660 Super @ 1080p has been holding up fine, though I have noticed frames dropping in Elden Ring and had to cut back some settings.

5070 12GB appears to have a bit better performance than 5060 Ti 16GB? And prices seem similar? I really don't know, I'm still on a 1660S kek.The GPU market is just a lot of data and fries my brain when I try to comp everything out. Also both are more than I'd like to spend, but assuming these will be required for 1440p with 60+ frames.
I was planning on reusing my old PSU, but I'm concerned that 560W won't be enough for this new build that's estimated at 470W (up from 320W on old build). I don't know much about power needs, does this look okay? At the time I felt like this was a really nice PSU and the 660W variant is like $300+ on amazon now.
CPU seems sufficient? Can't say I've ever felt bottlenecked by the R5 3600.
Windows 10? I have Windows 11 on my work comp and can't stand it.
Thanks
