wassap

I want to upgrade my current PC and I’d like to ask if this upgrade plan is okay, especially regarding the PSU and overall compatibility.

My current PC:

  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600
  • GPU: Palit GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER StormX OC 4GB
  • Motherboard: Gigabyte B450M S2H
  • RAM: 16GB DDR4 3200 MHz, 2x8GB HyperX Fury Black
  • PSU: Chieftec Proton 500W, BDF-500S
  • Case: Aerocool PGS Bolt RGB
  • Storage:
    • WD Blue 1TB HDD
    • Silicon Power P34A60 256GB NVMe SSD

Planned upgrades:

  • CPU: Ryzen 5 2600 → Ryzen 5 5600
  • GPU: GTX 1650 SUPER → Gigabyte RTX 5060 Ti 8gb
  • Storage: add a 512GB SATA SSD AS350X Apacer 
  • Case fans: add 3x ID-Cooling AS-120-K Trio 120mm fans
  • CPU cooler: ID-Cooling SE-224 / 224 series cooler

My main use is gaming on FHD

My questions:

  1. Is the Ryzen 5 5600 + RTX 5060 Ti a good upgrade for this motherboard?
  2. Is my Chieftec 500W enough for this setup?
  3. Is there anything else I should change before buying?

I have only 600$-700$ limit
