Warranty applies, though. A 500-550w unit is a solid choice. I was thinking about a 3-year warranty instead of just a few days. I’m looking for better sleep—more than 4 hours each night.

Find a Xeon 1230v3 for under $50 on AliExpress. Offers similar performance to the i7, newer generation, and fits a 1155 socket.

It depends on what you're planning to use it for. If you're just looking at performance for general tasks, it might work fine. For heavier workloads, consider checking compatibility and specs.

I prefer premium PSUs of better quality. The Seasonic 550W model is worth considering. A gold-rated unit would suffice. It provides some extra margin, superior quality, and a warranty longer than three years.

PSU should perform adequately; a 570W unit isn’t drawing excessive power. It’s definitely worth upgrading to something more efficient for future use, though it won’t suddenly cause issues.

i7 2600k seems overpriced at 70€ in my view. A cheaper option might be better. When looking at CPU prices, you could find a 5th gen model for 70€ on eBay (or around 100€ new).

Sure, you're all set! Just a quick note—feel free to ask if you need anything else.
