Do the Ryzen 5 7600X and GeForce RTX 2060 bottleneck each other?

Yes. At 1080p (1920 x 1080) the GeForce RTX 2060 is the limit and holds the Ryzen 5 7600X back by about 35.6%, for roughly 47 fps on High. High. 47 fps is below the 60 fps line, so this is worth fixing before anything else.

How many fps do the Ryzen 5 7600X and GeForce RTX 2060 get at 1080p (1920 x 1080)?

Around 47 fps on the High preset. The Ryzen 5 7600X tops out near 147 fps and the GeForce RTX 2060 near 47 fps, and the lower of the two sets the frame rate.

The same pair at every resolution

A processor pushes roughly the same number of frames whatever the resolution. A graphics card pushes far fewer as pixels go up. That is why the limit moves as you climb this table, and why a bottleneck figure quoted without a resolution means nothing.

Resolution	Estimated fps	Limited by	Gap
720p (1280 x 720)	63 fps	GPU	11.9%
1080p (1920 x 1080)	47 fps	GPU	35.6%
1440p (2560 x 1440)	26 fps	GPU	64.4%
Ultrawide 1440p (3440 x 1440)	17 fps	GPU	76.6%
4K (3840 x 2160)	12 fps	GPU	83.7%
8K (7680 x 4320)	5 fps	GPU	92.9%

What to do about it

The Radeon RX 6700 XT is the slowest card that puts this build back in balance at 1080p (1920 x 1080). Your Ryzen 5 7600X has the headroom to drive it, so the card is where the money should go.
