There is a known issue with Proton where you can get CPU and (especially) GPU overheating if you don't add a command line like this one to the Steam game launch options (and/or manually adjust your CPU settings in the CPU's case) :

DXVK_CONFIG="dxvk.maxFrameRate = 60; dxgi.maxFrameRate = 60; d3d9.maxFrameRate = 60" %command%

(The same is true for Wine/Lutris/Bottles, although in these cases you would set the variable in a different way)

This will limit the frame rate to 60 FPS, should fix the overheating issue in most cases, and will spare you some nasty electricity bills.
