There is a term for that (no not irony). But using a 1200W PSU for a 200W max load is not a good idea.
Think it has to do with putting enough pressure on the all the rails or something. I know back i nthe day if you wanted to use a PSU just for 12V, you had to add load to the 3.3 and 5v rails to keep the PSU from going belly up.
