I reapplied paste and the temperatures are about the same 39-40 degrees at desktop
First attempt core temps: http://i.imgur.com/Fiohbjr.png
Second attempt reapplied paste core temps: http://i.imgur.com/kMVx6ad.png
Is there any point in trying out the stock cooler?

I think it was at 76 degrees Fahrenheit. Maybe I applied too much paste. Would you recommend spreading it or a blob? Also when applying the thermal paste I did leave a finger print on the CPU. Would that be effecting the temperatures this much?

76 degrees is on the warm side - what case do you own & what is your fan configuration inside?
" Upgrading to your cooler to the h100i or a Noctua D15 should also improve your cooling"

Ambient temperature is now around 60 (air conditioner says 57) - I own a Cooler Master HAF X:
Cooling System
140mm Fans
1 x 140mm rear fan
200mm Fans
1 x 200mm top fan
1 x 200mm side fan
230mm Fans
1 x 230mm front red LED on/ off fan
And the Cooler Master 212 EVO has the fan facing the ram.
Also I've been reading that XMP profiles can increase temperatures. I have 2x4 GB g.skill ripjaws set to 1866 MHz. Could that be a factor of my temperatures?
Edit: I turned off the XMP profile and saw no difference. However in the BIOS it reads my CPU temps at 35 degrees at 4000 MHz frequency.

Your case has good airflow and it seems like you have lots of fans...
" I can't really visualize the complete configuration"
If your room is 60 Fahrenheit than your temps are too high and something might be wrong"
60 f is about 15 Celsius that's really cold, I would try to put some new high quality thermal paste and change the orientation of the fan so it's facing the exhaust fan...
I also heard you can put 2 fans on the evo however I've never played around with the evo..
" I like Corsair, Noctua and Phatek's"
You might want try the closed loop cooler master water cooling kit.

I used Arctic Silver 5 assuming it was high quality and have already removed, reapplied, and remounted the heatsink and saw little to no difference. I can reposition the fan to see if that changes anything though. I'll think about purchasing a second fan for a push/pull configuration.
My i7 is constantly in turbo mode, could that be causing the higher temperatures?
It seems I'm in no position to attempt to overclock my processor with the 100% load temperatures hitting 84 degrees after a minute and a half of running OCCT.

Motherboard is Asus Maximus VII Hero. I haven't changed any settings so the voltage is probably at auto.
Also I'm not sure what voltage to list from OCCT but here's the pictures they saved after the test. http://imgur.com/a/T0xnU

1. I suggest you update OCCT because there is a new version that recently came out.
2. Watch Tiny Tom Logan's video on overclocking with OCCT
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBEeXajbG2o
3. update your motherboard bios if possible.
I suggest you don't use auto voltage because voltage is the main cause for heat, you need to find the sweet spot.
You might need to play around with the load line calibration...
" I'm waiting for my Asus Maximus VII Impact to complete my build, I'm also going to use the 4790k as my cpu"
When my z97 board arrives, I will calibrate and overclock my system and share my knowledge with you.

I created a thread that might help you set up manual voltage and load line calibration settings for your set up.
Hopefully the thread will help me to because my mini itx build...
