I built my computer about 4 months ago and everything was fine, but maybe about a month ago the temperature started being really high, and games that i started playing when i first built it run worse than before. I don't know what to do exactly.

Setup:
Cpu: i7 6700k
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
GPU: GTX 1080
Motherboard: Dont remember
Power: 750w

I have a few fans surrounding the case too.

Let me know if you need more info.

80 degrees isnt a worry. I have the same cooler and an i5 4690k overclocked to 4.6GHz however I accidentally had the voltage set to 1.35V and the temps went to 98 degrees and everything was fine so 80 is a breeze
