I'm assuming you have the stock cooler on your fx-4130. Its hard to say what cooler to suggest because i don't know what case you have. Assuming that it would fit maybe a hyper 212 EVO you can usually pick those up for about 20 to 30 USD. You can get some pretty good temps and do some overclocking. OR better yet maybe a closed loop water cooling unit ex: corsair h80. Again all of these depend on which case you have to be sure that it will fit properly.

As far as the hyper 212 evo i don't believe it would fit in your case. Also as far as running GTA 5 im sure it will run it fine. While yes the CPU is to a certain degree bottle necking your GPU. With your case it seems that you are limited to CPU cooling options. But with your current specs you should be able to run the game about medium to high-ish settings. Granted that you have a decent amount of ram also.

Then yes you should be fine then. You should be able to run GTA 5 on Medium/High-ish settings. I recommend you look for a low profile heatsink. Also be sure to make sure if you do decide to get a new cooler that it not only fits in your case but also doesn't hit your ram.
