you can drop multipliers on some locked cpu's (the g1610t celeron i have in my 1U for example), if you can, do that, drop the multi and the voltage to the lowest you can with it still being stable, and obviously usable.
Might not be possible, but its worth a try, isnt going to cost you anything to give it a go~
you could also search the bios and see if you can disable cores, hyperthreading and turbo mode
