Rubbish.
You don't need to increase the current (voltage) to increase clock speeds, have you learnt nothing about overclocking on the PC?

No, I never overclock my PCs. Maybe, just maybe, I have some basic insight about electronics because, while I ran the electronics lab courses at our university for the physics students, I also learned a few basic things? (I also actually BUILT computer parts at a time when the PC didn't yet exist..)


So in otherwords, are you trying to say it's impossible to increase clock speeds without increasing voltages? Willing to make a bet on that?

Manufacturers set a voltage for a clockspeed for a reason though. I would dissagree and say it would likely be impossible to increase every single manufactured chips clockspeed without having to increase voltage on a single one of them for stabilities sake. (Otherwise why would the manufacturer have clocked so high in the first place)

Regardless increasing clockspeed will still increase heat. (Just not as much as increasing voltage as you said)
