To start with you don't have enough case fans installed to keep the necessary supply of cool air to the CPU and GPU coolers. You need, at minimum, two front 120mm fans, two top 120mm fans and a rear 120mm fan.

Front fans as intake, rear and top fans as exhaust. If you want to install fans in the side panel locations, that won't hurt either. The addition of the two top fans and an another front fan may decrease you load temperatures by as much as 10-15°C.

Without plenty of high volume air flow through the case, to bring in cool air AND to expel hot air, the CPU and GPU coolers are just pushing warm air through their respective heat sinks.

If you are not overclocking, the stock fan and heat sink should be sufficient for your CPU...

If you are not overclocking, the stock fan and heat sink should be sufficient for your CPU but adding a GOOD aftermarket cooler won't hurt. I'd definitely add the case fans first, and see what happens to your temps, then think about adding an aftermarket CPU cooler. Adding a better CPU cooler won't do much if you're still pushing hot air through it.
