Overclocking chips does tend to cause power usage to spike, yes. That's not exactly a new thing, nor is the increase that surprising. A slight bump to voltage will cause power consumption to skyrocket. Heck, i9-7980XE's at 4.9ghz are pushing 1kW in consumption. Hence why intel's 28 core @ 5ghz demo used a 1700W capable cooler.
