I'm looking to upgrade my gaming PC for the first time and need some guidance. I've mostly been a console gamer, and now I want to maximize my graphics settings for single-player games on a 1440p or 4K display. My current setup includes a G509 PowerSpec, NVIDIA GeForce 3060 (12GB), Ryzen 5 5600x, Lian Li 170 case, semi-modular 650W power supply, ASUS Prime B550m motherboard, and 16GB of DDR4 RAM. Everything's in great condition, so I'd prefer to keep as many components as possible. I'm working with a budget of $1000—if upgrading isn't realistic, I'd appreciate your input on that as well.

Honestly, the 3060 might struggle with gaming at 1440p or 4K. I suggest considering an upgrade to something like a 9070 XT for much better performance. Just keep in mind that you might also need to invest in a better PSU to support that card.
Do you think it’s feasible to fit a 9070 XT into the micro case I have?
