I'd also consider the RMi units as well.

 

Nevermind, I didn't read the question properly. The RM650x would be good for that build, keep it.

Honestly, try to grab a nice bronze or gold rated corsair powersupply that can output at least 750watts. This would be better so that there is still some headroom and that it isn't right at the edge of the 600watts. The 2080 uses around 250 - 300watts while gaming, and that would already be half. You still have cpu, cpu cooler, motherboard etc. At stock speeds, your 9900k will use at least 100 watts, and overclock you could be looking at around 120 - 150watts. that is already 450 at maximum. 150watt headroom with still all the parts left? I would go safe, spend another like 15 bucks and play it absolutely safe. 750watt will be killer. :)

There's absolutely no reason to change the PSU. The RMx is plenty good and quiet. 

Woops, didn't read it properly and didn't realise that he already had the RMx.
