Ageing Power supply

Both as far as I can tell would be fine for the upcoming x299 platform. Is this correct? (just checking)

Short answer ...YES :)

Unless specifically spec'd for the new release of motherboards coming out I wouldn't get too high over PS specs between this year and last years models. Here I'd go where the price fits my budget.

BTW there's also the P and T series which is purportedly "higher" than the G series. I've got both a P and G series PS and except for the fact that my P series PS has an Eco mode switch, unless you're running them balls to the wall, I don't think it makes any real difference power efficiency. At least nothing that's going to severely impact your electricity bill.

My two cents.

Which ever one you choose they are both really good. The one I was talking about was the G2 which is back ordered. But BOTH are very good choices Andrew. :)

Yes budget is very important so the cheapest will win. Will have a look around until end of month and see if any deals pop up.

Feels like there is something missing in the Short answer

They both have more than enough power to run what you want Andrew.
But I suppose you could get the 1200w LoL
