In almost every game I play my frames are at 60, however they typically drop often. I believe the problem is in my case. I will post pictures of my case, and I have tested my pc for temperatures before and the CPU is what seems to need better cooling.

The wiring is not tidy at all and the graphics card takes up a big chunk of space. I will link the case I have here:

The case only has a front fan and a fan on the CPU, My question is do I need a bigger case or would it be easier just to get more fans. If I got more fans I do not know if there would be enough room for them, but if I got a case I would have to wait to get some fans, what should I do right now?

I don't have liquid cooling, there is just a fan on the front (intake) and one on the back that is connected to the CPU. So I guess you could say that it uses a fan. I don't know about the temperatures in game, but last time I checked my idle temp was 44-52 which I am pretty sure is bad

The case should be fine I think.
What heatsink is that (make/model) so I can understand it better.
It also looks like your case has a vent in the bottom center, but it is
sitting flat on a shelf or something. If so, raise the front and back of the case
an inch or two with some wannabe feet and that vent should also help draw in
air that the GPU is sucking up and exhausting out the back.

..also, what's behind the case?
Is it wide open, or is that shelf enclosed?

I am not sure what my issue is then causing my frames to randomly drop all of the time. I don't think anything is bottlenecking me, but thanks for the help anyway

so I looked at HWMonitor and it told me my AUXTIN temp got up to 127*C, does this mean I need better cooling or what, also thanks for being patient with me, I know I have had a lot of issues

From what I can figure out, AUXtIN is the PSU temp reading and seems when it's that high, it's just an inaccurate reading. Touch the side of the PSU and feel the air at the back..chances are it's just moderately warm and you can ignore that.
What does your CPU and GPU temp show as?
