Using coretemp my cpu temp readings are 2-3 degrees, I'm using a K2 Mount doom but I'm pretty sure it should be hotter than that!

Any idea what might be going on?

I'm about to flash the bios as I've only had this installed for a matter of hours.

Also in speedfan my temp 3 is -128...

8320 @ stock

about 44 according to asus fan xpert and speedfan.

coretemp says 28

It's in "turbo" mode.

Seems a little warm considering my cooler?

What is your cooler and what is HWmonitor reporting?

The difference between coretemp and Asus fan expert seems high but that is because there is usually always a bit of a temp gap between Asus and core. Core temp is on the threshold of jumping up to more accurate temps, if you lower the fan speed a little to let the CPU warm up a bit in prime, you will find that the coretemp and Asus temp gap will be prob around 8-10 degrees (as my three fx octocores usually report).

Though there is a chance it might be throttling for some reason or another not related to Core temps. What multiplier does core temp report, under prime? (think stock should be at 17.5 * 200)

You are good till up to 65 but i would keep temps south of 60 under load when clocking. Your load temps seem high for stock clock but if you were using a mediocre cooler, it would be perfectly normal temps and they are still well within perfectly safe temps with plenty of overclock room.
