[SOLVED] Looking to replace noisy PSU

I'm looking to replace my 10 year old Corsair TX650 due to it being quite noisy. I've narrowed it down to two PSU's, but unsure about wattage and which one to pick.
I've got it down to the Corsair RM650x V2 and the Seasonic Focus PX 650W since both should be quiet and good from what I've read.

My setup for reference:
Gigabyte Z390UD
Intel i5-9600KF @ overclocked to 4.3 ghz
MSI GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER GAMING X TRIO
Corsair Vengeance LPX Black DDR4 3200MHz 16 gb
5x Arctic P14 PWM PST
One M.2 SSD and one regular
Sound card

Do my specs warrant a higher wattage or will I be fine with a 650W? And which one?
Hope you can help me!

You have the right power output. The Corsair RMx series is about as quiet as they come and is very high...

You have the right power output. The Corsair RMx series is about as quiet as they come and is very high quality. Look for RM650x.
