Ouch. This looks like a really bad abuse of the hardware, based
on the description of your test.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPU_power_dissipation says that
the CPU power consumption is proportional to

    P = C * V^2 * f 

It means that by the book, your overclocking should result
in (1.55 / 1.4) ^ 2 + (1200 / 1008) = ~1.46x higher power
consumption compared to 1008MHz at 1.4V. The actual numbers
can be always measured and compared with the theory. Somebody
may even do this and plot some nice charts.
