Well, I guess I could play some games with 60 fps, but for others I prefer a higher framerate.

You could try replacing 60 with a higher number in that case, and see whether the overheating issue persists. It just might not, as long as you limit the frame rate to a reasonable amount rather than use the default unlimited setting.

what worked well on Windows might not work on Linux.

True (the reverse is also true, mind you). As I like to say, Linux sometimes makes things needlessly complicated when it should be easy... And oddly enough, on Linux, sometimes things that should be very difficult turn out to be relatively simple instead. That's how I feel about it, anyway.

As for me, I've pretty much abandoned Windows for nearly everything except for Windows apps that just won't run properly on Linux despite my best efforts.

but it might just make me grow.

If you choose to persevere, I can guarantee it will.

EDIT : I modified the config line in my previous post a bit after looking at the documentation.
