But that is a pretty low wattage machine, so if you are pulling 350, you are getting ever ounce of performnace out of that thing.
I have an 850W power supply myself and I can only ever get it to pull around 480W from the wall by stress-testing both my i7 12700K @5.0 and my RTX 3060Ti with its power limit increased to 220W. @ThankGodItsFriday your computer will only ever pull as much power as it needs.

Your computer pulling more power would make it less efficient actually
