      The power consumption of overclocking is getting a bit of a rebalance.

      The change is fairly simple, but it is certainly worth knowing for those of you out there who like to crunch numbers and get your setups perfectly efficient.

      Mathematically, we're reducing the exponent of the power requirements.

      In layman's terms, this means that overclocking requires less power than before, but underclocking saves less

      power.

      Overclocking on power generators has changed too and is now more straightforward.

      Power production gains will now be at the same rate as your overclocking, so when you overclock to 200%, you will now get 200% of your base power production.

      Nuclear power plants will also use less water now to accommodate for these changes, making fully overclocked nuclear power plants actually viable now.
