SATA to 8 pin with an RX 5600 XT in silent mode

I know you shouldn't use these adapters but hear me out: I read that the SATA rail of the PSU should output 54 Watts, the 5600 XT in silent mode draws 135W at full load, and since the PCI-e slot should provide 75W, that leaves only 60W to go through the wires (only at full load), and the card could be further downvolted.

It should be fine, shouldn't it?
