I wonder it would be possible to underclock/undervolt these cpus to make it consume less power. Sometimes you just don't need pure raw speed.

  it's generally preferable to complete the task faster at high clock/voltage and then go completely idle then it is to run for longer at lower clock/voltage the total power draw is lower when the task is completed faster

    The general term for this is "race to sleep", if you want to find more information on it.
