The enermax lacks a second CPU 4+4pin cable, my motherboard is Gigabyte Z490 AORUS ELITE AC and it has a 8+4pin connectors

Not a problem. 

The single 8 pin can easily provide 384w of power  and the second one is used for heavy overclocking which with Ambient you can't really do. Also a hammered 10700k won't really need more than 384w.

the D.F. 

Which one is better for my situation? 650W Enermax Revolution D.F. (ERF650AWT) OR 650W Corsair RM650 (CP-9020194-EU)
The enermax lacks a second CPU 4+4pin cable, my motherboard is Gigabyte Z490 AORUS ELITE AC and it has a 8+4pin connectors, is it even a problem? Im planning to overclock my cpu, will the single CPU cable be enough?

yes, a single 8-pin will be enough for your CPU

check the psu tier list in the cases and power supplies sub forum

-sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately

the rev DF is the clear choice between those two options as its the better PSU.

If it was an RM650x I would've gone for that, but strictly between these two, the Revolution DF has the edge.

i'm more concerned about the gpu you'll be getting, if you get an ampere card with a 10700k and intend to oc everything...i'd recommend crunching some numbers before buying anything.

I mean, the 10700k draw 230w-250w at most, with a 5.1GHz OC IIRC. If he's just using it for gaming (don't know what he's using it for, but I assume gaming), it's not going to reach even 200w. Hell, for gaming loads with the 2080ti, the whole system (with a 5.1GHz OC, but stock 2080Ti settings) draws 400w during gaming. a 650w is more than enough for most high-end single card builds. It's not like Ampere is going to up power draw by 100-150w, even if you OCd it.

ampere is predicted to be 350-400w depending on which card he gets. He shouldn't buy a psu assuming "gaming load" instead of full load All i'm saying is make sure the numbers line up. at the very least i'd prep for 250w cpu+400w gpu+100w everything else.

400w gpu

That's like... 3x1070 amount of power

I can't imagine the cooler needed

Maybe the very top end like the rumored 3090 when under full load, or whatever the Titan's replacement is, but I figure that the x080s and lower will not draw much fmore than their 20XX counterparts.
