Hey,
I'm currently running an i5-3570k at stock speed with stock heatsink and I'm getting around a ~40C idle temp and anywhere from 55-60C load speed (havent tested at 100% load speed, just CPU-intensive things like Dolphin and TF2). Are these temps high? I just got this processor about a month ago and the installation went smoothly.

Any temperature below 90 is fine. When it hits 90 or more you should be watchful.

those temps are fine with stock HS

OK cool. I was just being a bit wary cause the program I was using (speccy) started displaying numbers in orange around 60C. I swapped over to SpeedFan though and it started displaying a bit lower so I guess I'm fine.

90C is far too high for that CPU. Many laptop CPU's can handle around 90C fine.
According to Intel the i5-3750K has a TCASE of 67.4C. For some reason there is no Tj spec for this CPU. TCASE is the temperature @ the heatspreader, Tj would be the temperature of the individual CPU dies, which would generally be 5C or so hotter at least.
Either way though, 60C under load is fine.

Those temps are perfectly fine with a stock CPU and cooler. If it still worries you, you could pick up a quality cooler for cheap.

Tj = Junction Temperature, on modern cpu is above 100°C, usually around 120 or something, since the system goes in protection mode (aka freezes, blue screens, audio and video loop, etc) when the cpu reaches around 105°C

Tj != Tjmax, but yes, that's usually above 100°C for pretty much all manufacturing processes.
Irrelevant for CPUs though, thermal shutdown will never let you reach that temperature and any even remotely recent CPU will have thermal throttling kicking in somewhere between 80 and 105°C (sometimes even lower on handheld devices, burnt hands tend to be a major usability issue).

There is nothing wrong with those temps especially if you are using the stock cooler.
