I'm looking to upgrade my GPU from a GTX 1650 Super since I want to play fast-paced shooters like Call of Duty with high fps, and also enjoy stunning visuals in story-driven games like Cyberpunk 2077. I'm torn between AMD and Nvidia options. I've heard AMD has some driver issues while Nvidia cards can be quite pricey depending on the model. My budget is around £200 to £400. I also have a Corsair CX600 power supply, and I want a GPU that will last a few years. Any suggestions?

The RX 9060XT 16GB is a solid choice! I've got a Ryzen 5600X paired with a 6750XT, and it handles 1440p gaming beautifully. Definitely consider that card for a good upgrade experience.
For about £400, you really can't go wrong with the RX 9060XT 16GB. It offers great value for performance, especially for what you're looking to play. Check out some YouTube benchmarks and reviews; this card performs exceptionally well in both shooters and RPGs.
If you want something a bit cheaper, the RTX 5060 for £280 could be a decent option as well, but if you're after more performance, the RX 9060XT 16GB for £370 is worth it. AMD has really improved their drivers in the latest generation too.
With your Ryzen 5 5600, you could also look at the RTX 5070 12GB or the RX 9070 16GB, but really, the RX 9060XT 16GB will give you a great balance of quality and longevity.
