Following showcaser's post, I installed nvidia-glx-177 version 117.80-0ubuntu2 from the repositories together with latest updates. Following shutdown and restart, the GPU is now idling at 44 C. Problem seems to have been rectified.
This is on Kubuntu Intrepid, XPS M1330 8400M, running dual head with external monitor on twinview.
