I'm considering getting the SX60 to run CHDK, which is a free firmware that allows RAW photos, timelapse etc.

SX60 already has raw capability.

Yes and I wouldn't rush into buying the SX60, if possible.  That 'extra' reach isn't quite as advantageous as it should be.  Once over 50x things get a bit complex even with these tiny sensors.

If you can hold out until September there is a good chance the SX70 will be available.  Of course it could be another miss especially if they do attempt 70x.

I have had the SX60 and the ergonomics were very good but my present SX50 does the job at half the price.  Referb of course.  Just my 1/2 c worth.
