This will depend on your power supply.
But generally, the capacity rated of the power supply only say how you
can draw from it.
If you're only drawing 50W, that's what you will use.
Power supplies efficiency do change based on the quality of the power
supply and how much you are utilising it.
These days most power supply are 80+, which means they guarantee it
will always be more than 80% efficient, no matter the load
