That 95 watt number they provide is a minimum to provide the advertised speeds more than anything else. Current stock chips from both AMD and Intel already use much more than their rated amount if there is headroom thermally and there is power availability. The 8700k for example has no problem drawing >150 watts when turbo'ing all cores and being well cooled. AMD does this as well.
Advertised heat output should also be taken with a grain of salt. Both die size and material between the die and heatspreader can make two 95 watt chips have very different cooling requirements.
