[Bug 1391422] [NEW] GeForce 820M running very hot in Ubuntu

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Ubuntu release: Ubuntu 14.10
Wine: 1:1.6.2-0ubuntu6
GPU: Intel HD 4000+Nvidia GeForce 820M
Nvidia drivers: nvidia-331-updates

Expected behaviour: GPU temperature should not be excessively high when
running OpenGL games.

What happens: The GPU temperature gets very high when running OpenGL games. For example, running "The Talos Principle Public Beta" from Steam in Ubuntu the GPU temperature will go up to 95-98C but running the same in Windows 8.1 (on the same laptop)  the temperature stays below 80.
The same thing happens when running other games and games in wine.

** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Incomplete
