99% sure you'll be ok on 550w. A 3060ti has a peak power draw of 200w, or 220w overclocked. The 5600x is a 65w rated chip and I doubt an all-core boost load will exceed 100w. For example the highest power draw I have had on my 5900x is 165w under all-core boost, and that is double the cores of a 5600x. So ~100+220 still leaves over 200w for motherboard, memory, drives, fans, etc on a 550w psu. Remember AMD cpus are not like Intel 10900Ks which draw 300w on an all core overclock.
