Well dedicated GPU aren't meant to be run 24x7. Nvidia Optimus switches to
dedicated GPU under heavy graphic processes. We don't have anything like that
on Linux. Just turning ON the dedicated GPU would make system temperature rise
by at least 10C and power consumption also by 5-10W.
I would also be sure that you have a full complement of
cabinet fans.
You know I am talking about a laptop. I am not sure if GPUs have fans in
laptops.
I had a laptop with the 2 gpu's also.
the one that was external to the CPU had it's own fan.
If you think power consumption is a big overriding issue for you
then perhaps you will have to accept the consequences :) :)
