The cooling for your processor should be designed to handle the maximum TDP
of the processor, if not, then you've got a much bigger problem. I would
make an exception for laptop processors since they have very limited
cooling but they should throttle anyway. Either case, it shouldn't be a
problem.

When there are test builds available I'll check if there's any
noticeable increase in power draw. I have a very nice UPS that gives me the
current draw in watts.

Thanks,
