Should I buy a PS5 or upgrade my existing PC?

I have a budget of ₹55,000 and currently own a PC with a Ryzen 3 2200G, A320M motherboard, RX 6500 XT 4GB Low Profile GPU, 16GB DDR4 3200MHz RAM, and a 650W Ant Esports PSU. I’m planning to upgrade my system with a Ryzen 5 5600 or Ryzen 5 5600X, an RX 7600, a 500GB SSD, and a B550 motherboard. I can reuse my existing RAM and PSU for now, especially since RAM prices are quite high.

The main thing confusing me is whether I should upgrade my PC or buy a PS5 instead. I’ve always been a PC player and have never really used a controller before. Besides gaming, I also use my PC for watching movies, Excel work, and other daily tasks. I can stretch my budget slightly to around ₹60,000 if needed. Another option is selling my RX 6500 XT, or simply pairing it with a Ryzen 5 5600 for now and continuing to play games at 1080p until I upgrade to a better GPU later.

I’m really confused about which option would be the better choice for me.
