I know a store near my house they have them in stock 

If it's for under 35K RS (460USD) then you may want too do that, as they are impossible to find rn. Your psu could use an upgrade aswell.

RTX 3060ti is avalable at around 35k-40k in India while RX 5600 XT is costing 28K should I just get the 3060ti? will it cause a significant cpu bottle neck?

Those 3060tis are being scalped. How long are you willing to wait?

If it's for under 35K RS (460USD) then you may want too do that, as they are impossible to find rn. Your psu could use an upgrade aswell.

Yeah GPU + PSU upgrade sounds good But can My 7600k( 4 threaded ) handle AAA games for atleast the next 1 year?

The 7600k is only 4c/4t, but if you play on higher settings (Which you can def do with a 3060ti) you should be okay, although some games like RDR2 will have a bit of trouble running

apparently I have a CPU bottle neck https://www.cpuagent.com/build-compare/intel-core-i5-7600k-vs-intel-core-i9-10900k/summary/nvidia-geforce-gtx-1060-vs-nvidia-geforce-gtx-1060?res=1-vs-1&quality=ultra-vs-ultra&ram=16-vs-32&ramspeed=2400-vs-3800

Those sites are complete BS. There may be small bottleneck but it won’t be extreme.

It’s fine, but it’s not great. I’d go with a better 550 - 650w unit.
