I have a laptop with Nvidia Geforce Go and nvidia drivers. My laptop screen is broken so I connect to an external monitor and disable the first. The nvidia gpu is constantly at highest and heats up my laptop. I still want the driver for 3d but I want to be able to control it. Is there any hack I can do to underclock or switch to nouveau drivers and switch back to Nvidia when neccesary?

In a manner of speaking, yes.

sudo nvidia-settings

Then, in the left column, look for an entry called PowerMizer, and set mode Adaptive instead of Maximum Performance.

Otherwise/Also, find a way to cool your laptop (ie using a laptop cooler).
