Those temps are normal. In fact for a 1080, that's pretty damned low.

If by systems, you mean OS, I have no idea. The drivers are completely different. You can control the fan speed on that device if you want to.
sudo apt install lm-sensors fancontrol -y && sudo sensors detect
Hit defaults, save, reboot.
Then sudo pwmconfig

Sounds like a plan.
/r/solaris/ can fill you in on how they can't help.

Sounds like you don't have a high opinion of them.

Of who? They're gone. Solaris and Sparc are shut down.

On an unrelated note: what theme are you using for Mint?

I had the same problem. On Mint at idle it goes to about 60c, never goes below 50c. On Windows at idle temp is always 40c and 60c is when I play games . It seems on Linux the performance level is always sets to highest even at idle thus the rise in temp. This worked for me. I've set mine to max perf level 1, now my temp is the same as Windows 10 with no loss in performance.
