GPU prices are still rather high. Your budget will limit your options. Here are a couple to consider. Either would be a significant improvement over what you have today.

Make sure your PSU is sufficient to power what you buy. What is the make/model of your current PSU?

Also, having space in your case is a consideration. What case are you using?

Yes, it should perform quite nicely, I would think.

I'm not sure I'd subject a 3060 to a junky, group-regulated PSU.

I wouldn't either, but it "should" work. It is certainly of dubious quality.
