There are community builds of proton that incorporates additional patch sets which may help. Proton-ge is one of the more popular ones.
Don't worry about trying to figure out how to install it manually, you can use protonup-qt to download the version and install it into the right place. (or protonup-rs, if you want a command line version).
When you install the newest version (Currently GE-Proton9-27) you'll have to restart Steam and then it'll appear in the list alongside the Valve proton versions. Many of the nvidia-specific issues I have with proton are fixed with proton-ge (RTX3080)
e: oops, someone has already mentioned this.
