Hi,
this should provide the Linux stuff versions:

However, the problem is probably related to the video card (as overheating appears when some OpenGL game is running):

Laptop is from Tuxedo (can I get the modell number somehow from my linux system, instead of looking into the invoice?):
Tuxedo Book XC1704 with Geforce GTX 860M 2GB GDDR5
Kind regards Peter
A good way to provide an overview of your hardware is the "lspci" command.
Have you tried downgrading your system and seeing if the problem remains? This should usually be the first step in troubleshooting a bad update.
Additionally, can you describe in more detail what exactly the problem is? Nearly all laptop chipsets have BIOS-controlled fans, so unless you have some unusual software running, the kernel / video card drivers shouldn't be messing with the fans unless you explicitly set something up to do so.

Downgrading the Nvidia driver does not seem to be a good idea, as version 367.35 has a dependency on linux<4.7. As both, the graphics driver and the Linux OS, need to be downgraded simultaneously, this will not show which causes the problem. The second option is to replace the Nvidia driver with the Nouveau driver - I've to read about this first, as the driver evolves and probably supports more features as when I checked this last time. "lspci" results in the following list: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor DRAM Controller (rev 06) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor PCI Express x16 Controller (rev 06) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 06) 00:03.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor HD Audio Controller (rev 06) 00:14.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family USB xHCI (rev 05) 00:16.0 Communication controller: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family MEI Controller #1 (rev 04) 00:1a.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family USB EHCI #2 (rev 05) 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset High Definition Audio Controller (rev 05) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port #1 (rev d5) 00:1c.1 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port #2 (rev d5) 00:1c.2 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port #3 (rev d5) 00:1c.3 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port #4 (rev d5) 00:1d.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family USB EHCI #1 (rev 05) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation HM87 Express LPC Controller (rev 05) 00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family 6-port SATA Controller 1 [AHCI mode] (rev 05) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family SMBus Controller (rev 05) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK104M [GeForce GTX 860M] (rev ff) 03:00.0 PCI bridge: Texas Instruments XIO2213A/B/XIO2221 PCI Express to PCI Bridge [Cheetah Express] (rev 01) 04:00.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments XIO2213A/B/XIO2221 IEEE-1394b OHCI Controller [Cheetah Express] (rev 01) 05:00.0 Unassigned class [ff00]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
