My son's budget gaming laptop fro 4-5 years ago doesn't play current gen games well at all. Hopefully this plays them just fine (don't need max settings) and it can be upgraded in the future, which sounds like it can be although PSU can be a PITA I'm reading.

I went with this one because it is $100 cheaper and UserBenchMark said the 5060Ti performs better
I hate to be that guy, but if you're looking to play AAA games from the past few years at 1440P on high or ultra settings, maybe wait for a slightly upgraded build.
I'm sure someone out there will defend 8GB GPUs here - they're good for certain uses, I'm not denying that. If you just want to play older titles, if 1080P is your target resolution, or if you have a non-gaming application - have at it. Just know what you're getting here, and what you're not getting.
Also - I recently picked up a used ibuypower PC with a i7-9700k CPU for $200. Upgraded to 32gb Corsair Vengeance DDR4 for $20 after selling the existing memory (buy low, sell high), and replaced the worn out AIO with an air cooler for $35. Bought a 9060 XT open-box at Microcenter for $311 (plus tax). Waiting for someone to buy the 8gb 2070 it came with to help pay for it. Currently getting 100+ FPS on 1440P ultra settings in Horizon Forbidden West. Cost is currently around $600, but that'll drop to $500 or less, once the old GPU sells. Obviously rebuilding a used PC is different from buying a new one, and I have a CPU that is at it's limit. But just to say you can DEFINITELY get 1440P ultra for less than $1k. Also, bragging a bit, I suppose...
It's more expensive at $1300 but probably worth it if you're looking to game at 1440p at high/ultra settings and want smoother gameplay.
