Let's consider if z590 is a good investment.
You're considering different motherboard options for your build. A Z590 offers more PCIe lanes, which could benefit your Z490 and I7-10700K setup. The Z490 is a solid mid-range choice, but since the Z590 is available, it might be worth the upgrade. If you're constrained by stock availability, pairing the Z490 with an I5-10600K and 3060Ti seems reasonable. The I5-10600K pairs well with the Z490, providing a balanced performance mix.
