It used to be proportional to the square of the voltage, though I'm not sure how accurate that if for more recent cpus. That would mean increasing to 1.6V at 3.12G would give: 76*1.6²/1.525² = ~84W.

76W sounds within reason for a 120W pelt. Won't get stellar temps, but we'll see what happens. Thanks for the algorithyms!
