How much thermal paste did you use? Most people use too much and you might have done so.
As far as stock voltage what's your VID? That should be your stock voltage. VID is found using Core Temp.

Edit: I had the same problem when I got this chip. See.

That's too hot. mine idle at 24-26, and full load at 45-50.
I got my chip to 3.8 ghz with the voltage of 1.325

The way you put the thermal paste is incorrect, follow that instruction.

Yep, time for a reseat and reapply the thermal paste.

And later get rid of that Big Typhoon and get an even bigger typhoon like the TRUE.

I gotta say, it does sound right. Something is way off though. Make sure the HSF is on correctly. If so you'll have to reseat. Temps are way too hot.
