Exarch Molonach frying GPU

I'm running an AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT and never had a single issue while playing ESO. Even the lags and freezes other players experience when there are a lot of players at one spot and/or effects flying around don't happen to me. But for some reason, whenever I fight Exarch Molonach in the Night Market, the GPU runs to its limit and heats up to 80°C (176°F). It typically starts when the first Shadow Phase starts and only ends after the fight. Even with a smaller group, no combat effects, just the extra darkness that spreads which might be the culprit? There are also still no lags or freezes, I only noticed because the fans of my PC suddenly turned so loud.
This card was very expensive and I would prefer it not being killed by the boss that already kills everyones nerves anyway. Can we maybe just kick him out of future Markets pls? 🙏

✭✭✭An AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT can safely deal with 110 degrees on the hotspot. That's about 85 degrees on the core and is the card's maximum.
There are a lot of effects in that fight and it may simply be dealing with them as it should. If you are not getting freezes, lag and your fps isn't dropping then there isn't anything to worry about.
Try googling a quieter fan curve. The stock ones can be unnecessarily noisy.PC EU
