Temperatures closer to 100c and over are worrisome. But it depends on the environment and if it's a laptop or desktop. Laptops run hotter, that desktops and its normal for them to be in the 80s for either GPU or CPU. As for usage percents. GPU usage should almost always be close to 100% for graphically Intense games, but there are variables such as resulotion and frame rate. Looking at your numbers you posted, I don't see an immediate reason why it would be crashing so soon. The temps and usages were fine, so that would lead me to suspect software.
And did you try proton experimental?
Yes I tried every Proton version on Steam
