My stock cooler keeps it around 57-63C in BF4 so I'm thinking you may have a slightly bad mount or something

There's the problem. They are basically being ineffective. Since the RPM is that low i doubt much of the liquid is really being cooled. 

 

ok cool its good up to about 90C right 

Yes.

Yeah turn them up and wait to see if the temp goes down. Also you could check to see if the pump is mounted correctly as the i series coolers do have slight issue when mounting.
