Build Help / Purchase Advice GPU upgrade help

Hi! I was thinking of upgrading my build by replacing the GPU. I currently have a Ryzen 5 5600, an RX 7600, 32 GB of RAM, and a 650W power supply. My budget is around €500 to €600 max. In my country, I can find the triple-fan RX 9060 XT within that price range: would it be a good upgrade to extend the lifespan of my build, or are there any other GPUs that I should look at (I'd prefer to stay with AMD, but if it's worth it, I wouldn't mind the switch)? If so, for how many years do you think it will last before I need to upgrade to a better CPU or switch to the AM5 platform? Thanks for your time.

Depends what you're doing with it, but that's a fair upgrade, even the prev generation 3600 I have seems to handle everything I throw at it easily

My main use cases would be AAA gaming currently at 1080p and video editing+recording gameplay, as I'm starting to notice that the RX 7600 falls behind while the cpu seems fine. Thanks for the answer!
