Your comment is both true and utterly irrelevant to the person you replied to who asked about comparison between CPU and GPU efficiency.

The important information to answer the question is how much power the GPU will use, not how much it can use.

But how much it can use gives you an upper limit on how much it will use. To boot, that also gives you an idea of how much power one can expect to draw under full load at any given time over any given time frame.
