Which of these would be a better PSU for my new PC? And if you could explain why that'd help as well. Thanks in advance!

I would go for the Seasonic, seasonic makes really high quality and very reliable PSUs, you can't go wrong with them.

Seasonic are widely regarded as being one of the best PSU manufacturers.

That Corsair model is not bad either though.

With these, you need to decide which you prefer based on rep, warranty etc. I think there isn't much between them.

If I had to pick, I would go Seasonic, purely as they are so revered.

The obvious choice is the SeaSonic SSR-550RM, it's a better quality PSU backed by 5 year warranty. For your convenience have a look at the reviews of both Corsair and SeaSonic model PSU done by legendary PSU reviewer JohnyGuru listed below :

Both companies have great reputations for their PSUs. I am using a Corsair AX860i and love it but in this case the Seasonic might be a bit better option due to the 5 year warranty vs the 3 year for the Corsair.
