Rubbish.
You don't need to increase the current (voltage) to increase clock speeds, have you learnt nothing about overclocking on the PC? Hint: People have been doing it for decades, even reducing voltages and increasing clock speeds and thus reducing heat and power consumption.

No offense, but I'll take the proof that is decades worth of overclocking over your opinion.

I agree with @drkohler.

The example you give is with multipliers... so you didn't changed the base clock to go with high multiples... like 10x200 = 2000Mhz or 11x200 = 2200Mhz... no change in voltage... same for well 12x166 = 2000Mhz and you can decrease the voltage.

But to increase the base clock you have a limit... you start to increase it until you have to increase the voltage to get stable.

Now remember GPU only have the base clock (AMD GPU... nVidia have two clocks but I won't enter in this part).
