Hello92, welcome to the forum.
The temps of your video card don't seem to be too bad. The absolute max for the GTX 950 is 95C. Ideally, you would want to keep it at least 10C to 15C below that, which yours is according to your figures. Your CPU temps on the other hand are much too hot for me. When OC'ing I am very conservative and like to see temps around 50C.
You may have to get a bit inventive when it comes to adding case fans. It is always a balance. You can actually get the fans to work against one another. In other words, the air from one fan can cause another not to work efficiently. Trial and error is the best way to go. When the fans are working correctly you will see an increase in cooling. Also, there most likely aren't places to mount the fans. This can be overcome by using velcro or other means. There will not be enough connectors, so you will have to use adapters.
After market coolers are normally very large. You will have to measure carefully to assure that the cooler you choose will fit into the case. I recommended a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO to a member and it was too tall. Cooler Master makes some very good coolers, but you have to find one that will fit into your case.
