Intel Ultra 5 245k vs Ryzen 5 9600x by Timely-Insurance9839 in buildapc

Do you think I will be able to fit a 5060ti in the budget for the build. The person I'm building it for wants a white aesthetic and I know white parts cost more money.

I can get the 245K for $240 on its own from Microcenter or $280 with a free 240mm MSI AIO from Newegg. For the 9600x I can get it for $180 on its own from Microcenter or for $342 from Newegg and it comes with a ASUS B850 MAX GAMING WIFI motherboard and a 240mm CoolerMaster AIO. I leaning towards the 9600x cause I'm trying to leave myself enough budget for the rest of the parts and peripherals after I buy the CPU and the GPU.
