Re: [WIP] Guide : how to make the N9 faster & smoother?
 

It works out pretty much even until you overclock too much; the relationship between frequency and power usage is mostly linear. If you overclock 10% then it uses 10% more power and completes tasks 10% faster. Unfortunately it gets hotter than normal and leaks more current at the same time.
