I have a i7 2600k using the stock cooler and I'm hitting 70-75C whilst playing battlefield 4. Is this too hot and should i buy an after market cooler? If so which cooler would you recommend? Thanks.

Sosofm is right.It seems u really need something better than a stock cooler. U could get the one that sosofm said or one of these:

Those ones can be expensive, but u can live with it a long time and even upgrade the CPU to a better one without needing to replace the cooler itself. And those liquidcoolers really keep ur CPU temperature low. :)

Hey guys thanks for the help! I ended up getting the corsair h100i and have noticed a huge difference. My cpu temp at max load doesn't go over 52C now. However the fans that come with it are very loud. Is it worth getting new fans or won't it make much difference?

If you want everything to match you can get the SP120's for your H100, but there is no real point as the stock fans that come are already part of the SP series, the SP120's which you can buy individually are a bit quieter.
