RTX20 is a 2018-2019 video card. Not THAT OLD.

Probably you were using DLSS + high level of shadow softening + perhaps NO lod. In short the AI part was working like crazy, and a entry level GPU card has not enough tensor core.

My advice is to let geforce experience decide the best for you, add a FPS limit (always a good idea) and if it is still overheating remove the other shadows.
