Help/Suggestions wanted..

Hi guys. I've got an GTX 1060 (3GB) and with the current GPU market situation being the way it is, I'm not willing to upgrade now.. Anyway, I want to upgrade the rest of my system. I could get an ROG STRIX Z490-G Gaming (WiFi) Motherboard and an i5 10600k for 400€.
What are your thoughts? 
Anyone maybe got that exact configuration and can tell me if it's worth it or anyone got suggestions for me in that price range. Intel or AMD.

BTW I mainly want to use the system for gaming (warzone mostly) and music production (Ableton + plugins). 

I would also use it to livestream DJ Sets from home. Gamingwise i would like to achieve smooth 60 or maybe even 120 fps in Warzone on low settings of course or as much as possible the 1060 is capable of. 

 

Thanks in advance
Viktor

That is a good upgrade, but I would get a 11600k and a z590 board. If you have a restricted budget, the 10600k-z490 should be just fine
