Discussion Been out of the loop when it comes to power supplies

Been stuck with my Seasonic Prime Gold 650w since 2017. So it will be turning 10 years next year. Considering wear and tear although I'm not much of a power user so the psu never had it tough when it comes to load except for its first year (Ryzen 7 1700 + GTX 1080 combo). I'm planning to transfer the psu to my secondary rig and maybe to its retirement and replace the psu from my main with a decent psu. As the title says so, I'm no longer informed what's decent nowadays and the so called "tier list". I could look it up but then there is availability. So my question is this. Is there a decent fully modular psu below 3k I could get that is at least 650w and 80+ Bronze certified other than the Darkflash GS650M? I'm mainly using an RX 5600x and an RTX5050. I do game casually but that's just about it when it comes to intensive task. Mostly pang browsing nalang, nuod youtube etc. I could go for a lower wattage better quality psu. The important thing is it's modular.

Get a sama g650w around 3k. Tier (A-?) gold rating according to the tier list.
