I don’t think so. The 5700XT is a solid 1080p card; only a 6700XT or higher would be worth upgrading, especially since the GPU costs over $300. A 5600 + 5700XT combo should hold up for a long time.

Only a 5700 model is available; would selling this and switching to the XT version make sense?

God no. If you must, at least upgrade to a 6650XT. However, the 5700 remains a solid 1080p option, so I’d stick with it.

A NVIDIA alternative would likely offer more stable performance given your past challenges. Since you've relied on AMD for this build, switching to NVIDIA could provide a smoother experience, especially considering your history with boot issues and driver problems.
