If your Nvidia supports Optimus technology then you should install Bumblebee with or without Nvidia properietary drivers. That should cool down your laptop. I had the same issue & Bumblebee helped. Basically it stops the use of GPU when not needed but also one needs to invoke the particular app to run GPU through Bumblebee. It does not do that automatically right now.
