Question about Powercolor Radeon RX 5700 XT Red Devil

Isn't the power consumption of 700 watts much too high? 2x 8-pin = 300 watts plus the PCIe connection never adds up to 700 watts... Or am I looking at it the wrong way?

Helpful answer
No, you are right. The specification of 700W is the "minimum system power requirement (W)". This means the recommended power supply unit for the complete system in order to run reliably and stably.
