really interesting !
I was far away of the truth, as not using DRI prevents GPU from being 
under heavy load.
Is my case, GPU never overcome 60°, and that is when running cpuburn, so 
CPU is even hotter.

I think that 70° for the GPU is acceptable, but that is a limit, and 
glxgears doesn't use all the feature of the GPU.
It may be more reasonnable to monitor this GPU temp value too.
I will rewrite the script in order to monitor GPU and CPU in a simple - 
and maybe inteligent - maner.
I'll send it here when I am sure it is not buggy :)
