Hello. I only have 2 cabinet fans in my cabinet, and a cpu cooler to cool my pc. I am looking to buy some more fans, but do you guys think it will fix the problem?
 
It depends upon the CPU cooler used. For example if you are just using the stock Intel or AMD cooler, then adding additional case fans will not help much.

The better solution is to look at the CPU cooler, and evaluate if it should be replaced. It may just need to be cleaned of dust and remounted with fresh thermal paste.

What is the CPU cooler?

I don't have access to it right now, and it hasn't shut down yet, but when i play games that makes the pc very hot, they often crash.

The games crash or the pc crashes/bsod?
