Cool Re: Overclock the Imagio

it doesn't change that much at all. sitting idle it's within a couple % of the power draw.

you would assume these mobile processors have much better power saving features than desktop CPU's. a good general rule of thumb for semi-modern desktop CPU's is for every 17% overclock there is a 10% power draw increase while under full load, while at the stock voltage.

you have more to gain in battery life by using WMLong Life & forcing 1x mode than you would loose with a 45% overclock rotf!
