Is my i7 870 overheating? The Idle is at 46 degrees Celsius and when 100% full load it goes up to 85 degrees. I have a stock cooler. Or something wrong with the thermal paste and need to be reapplied or do I need a new cooler? I have 2 case fans and it seems to not be working to cool down CPU temps.

PC Specs:

CPU- i7 870 @ 2.93GHz
GPU- R7 370
PSU- COOLMAX ZX Series ZX-600 600W 80 plus certified
RAM- 16 GB DDR3
MB- ASUS P7P55D‑E LX
 
Solution
That's where it runs with the stock cooler. Intel Spec'd it to 100C, but it should never run that high. A better cooler will definitely drop the temps. I'm about 75C on full load.
