Are you sure ?
I can confirm this with measurements I have taken. You may be thinking of inductive loads. A cpu basically acts like a resistive load. Though as others have pointed out they contain capacitive elements. Which are different yes, but less voltage is also less load for them. The load will decrease with lower voltage. As my measurements have shown. Amps will fall at the same time as volts and of course, maximum clock speed will as well.
