I currently have a 600W.
I’m upgrading my CPU from a i5 9600K to a i5 12609K.
It’s just for gaming not running anything that should max it out.
Should I be ok with the current PSU?

New Specs
600W PSU
RTX 3070
i5 12600K c/w All in one cooler
3x Intake fans
32GB RAM
 
I’m not sure it’s just 80 Plus Gold
That doesn't tell us anything about the quality. There can be a huge difference between a low and a high quality psu of the same wattage rating. 600w would be right on the lower edge of being enough if its a high quality psu. For the safety of your system it would probably be best to upgrade to a good quality 750w or 850w for future headroom.
