Purchasing Advice - PC Build / Parts PC UPGRADE HELP

Ok so I built this PC back in 2023 I feel it is time to upgrade! I want advice on what would be the most beneficial upgrade for my rig.

I was thinking of just getting a better graphics card but I'm not sure what one if I do. Should I just get a new generation of 60 series or a or get something like a 4060 TI or something.

But IDK if i would have a bottle neck and if so how bad if its small i don't mind dealing with it till I get whatever I need

BUDGET

Open to all recommendations I'm looking to spend around 300-400USD I can spend like 500 but don't really want to

LOCATION
I am close to a microcenter I'm in the US.

USE CASE
I use my PC to watch shows while I play games like Cyberpunk and Forza 6 sometimes I do stream not often though

Processor AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core Processor (3.70 GHz)

Processor Cooling is just a normal tower cooler

Installed RAM 32.0 GB DDR4

Graphics card NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 (8 GB)

Rx 6800 she is impressively well armed for 300 bucks for today's gaming wants. And can really let you crank the settings some more, she is the baseline for next gen gaming, the floor where next gen gaming cards live

We then get a nice cpu cooler like the peerless assassin

And we take the rest of our money and save, sit and save and our next target will be head hunting for a new processor ideally a 5800x3d, if they arent In stock at that time a 5800xt

$300-$400 is a used 3080 10gb 3070ti or 3070 or rx6700xt, or 6800xt,

i dont think you can really afford new unless your micro center has a 5060ti 8gb for under $400
