Take the overclock off your CPU. Overclocks and stock coolers don't work well together. Your GPU may be overheating because off the hot air coming off the CPU

Here are what my temps were after undoing the overclock and with the GPU fan on max during dying light...

I couldn't put in a gyazo pic for some reason so if you have any suggestion's on new screen shot programs could you tell me?
It got up to 78 degrees but that was after the picture... I didn't want to see how much further it would last but would i just need to get more fans and more air flow or is there something else i could do to cool this down.

As a somewhat drastic course of action, one might consider underclocking.

My friend had disgusting CPU temperatures before he could get hold of an aftermarket cooler, by shaving off some voltage we lowered his temperatures by a fair few degrees.

Of course you'll lose performance, but it's entirely safe and will tide you over until you stumble upon a more...optimal solution

How long had you been playing for when you took the screenshot?
is their any dust in the GPU fans?
Do you have the fans locked at a low speed ex. 30%?

I had just got into about the first 15 minutes of dying light.
I just blew out the whole computer before starting to play.
How do i check if there locked at a certain percent. If your talking about GPU fans then i went into msi afterburner and turned the fan off of auto and all the way up to 100%.

Buy some fans. I keep my PC near my air vent to keep the surrounding area cool.

Yes, you can put 2 fans in the front of the case as "intake"
Should already have one in the back, came with the case.
You may be able to put 2 in the top.
