So i'm thinking to buy Corsair RM650 and ASUS r9 280 TOP OC. 

 

I'd like to know that is that PSU PCI-E cables compatibility with that GPU.

Are you asking if they fit?? Or if there is enough??

The Corsair RM series of PSUs are pretty dam well equipped, with a total of 4 PCI-E 8 pin connectors, and the 280 you linked only needs a 6 pin and an 8 pin connector. 

Just so there's no confusion the 8 pin cables are just 6 pin connectors with an extra 2 if the GPU needs them. So you can use just one cable which you will plug a 6 pin connector and the other 6+2 pin connector.
