I'm curious if a 650W power supply can handle an RTX 2080 Super while gaming at 1440p. I've been experiencing some coil whine issues, and I'm wondering if that means I need to upgrade my power supply or if the graphics card itself could be the cause.

If you have a solid 650W PSU, it should work well for the RTX 2080 Super. Just make sure it's one that's rated for higher performance, like an 80 PLUS certified unit.
It really depends on which power supply model you're using. Some lower-quality ones might struggle, while a good quality 650W should be fine. Just make sure to stay away from those cheap brands.
Got it! So could the coil whine just be the graphics card itself causing it? Thanks for the insight!
I actually have a Corsair CV650 80PLUS Bronze, so that sounds promising!
