I wasn't sure if increasing the voltage would affect the heat output, but I want to be certain.

Without a rise in voltage, current must still flow. A minor boost in clock speeds means greater power consumption even when voltage remains constant.

When you keep the voltage at auto mode, it rises with higher clock speeds, which is correct. Setting the voltage fixed (like 1.35V) means temperature changes mainly due to minimal impact, staying close to expected values.
