I have gotten my i3 3225 down to .848 @ 2.6 Ghz. It uses less power now than my i3 2120T did.

I think I've got my 3570k at around 1.12v under load at 4.3Ghz, dips to 0.888v or so at idle (as low as 1.6Ghz at idle of course).
I'm not even sure I've used the best method to achieve this overclock:
AsRock z77 extreme4
-0.90 or so offset, LLC 2, PLL at around 1.67 perhaps, DDR3-1866 8-9-8-2T @ 1.495v (4x2gb g.skill eco); Thermalright Archon @ 60-71C under load (11C spread, more at higher loads).
I got to this setting rather easily so I have not messed with it. My IHS probably isn't making good contact: temps rise too much at 4.5Ghz. 4.3Ghz is the sweet-spot until I de-lid.
