Please help: AMD CPU questions and a few other questions

[jstokes96f150]

Hello I'm fairly new to the PC world, and am needing some help. I'll jump right in. My motherboard only has 2 fan headers not including the cpu fan header. I have a 3gb gtx1060(I know, Shame on me). and the processor is an AMD FX-8120. My cpu has 8 cores and while playing games like chivalry and fortnite (ON High/med settings) my temps can reach 80 celsius! Would I be better off trading for a ps4 pro and just going back to my console gaming IF I'm not willing to drop any extra money into this already wallet-taxing rig. My the way here is complete specs. MOBO: Gigabyte ga-78lmt. CPU: AMD FX-8120 (8 cores). RAM:12gb. GPU: Geforce GTX1060 3gb. OS: Windows 10. Someone please be honest, is my CPU garbage for trying to get performance and decent quality for the current games? It runs Black ops 3 at a very playable 40-45 fps. I believe that's on high settings.

Your CPU is dated, but adding some fans to your case is relatively cheap. A good 120mm fan is in the $10-25 range.

And 80 C is a bit high, but you will not see throttling until around 100 C.

what do you already have in the way of case fans?

If you are going to add more, make sure that they are all blowing the same way. In from teh front and out from the top and back.
