I am currently experimenting with under volting a 2120 i3 that I have upgraded my MITX LAN rig to.

So far im blown away with what im achieving, will post results soon. Is anyone else undervolting these chips?

No, but am interested in your results!

OK will upload a screen pick later...

In prime95 after 1 hour, I have set the BIOS volts to 0.975 and the memory to 1.2v

It is 100% stable, only CPUZ picks up chip core volts at 0.99/98

Power consumption under full load is around 55 -60 watts

Plec on these forums has overclocked his 2500k to 4.4GHz while undervolting to a mere 1.19v. Cracking results on your i3 though!
