Hi everyone. I read on a 2011 article - http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=nouveau_comp_2011&num=19 - that my particular card, GeForce 8400 GS, overheats with nouveau. (So, I never tried using if for long, before, as soon as possible, installing the proprietary drivers...) But, because it's a 2-year-old article, I was wondering if that problem could have been, in the meantime, solved?... (Can anyone tell me if that is so, or not - or indicate me a place where I can know that?)
That situation likely hasn't changed as far as I know. But I think that article was overreacting. 80 degrees C on an NVIDIA GPU really should not be dangerous. There are GPUs that can normally hit over 100 degrees even with active cooling. Passively cooled GPUs like that will normally run pretty warm.
