65C under load shouldn't damage the cpu but if your really worried just upgrade your cpu cooler.

Appearantly i set it up to do that, (i'm retarded). I've been reading a bunch of threads that said it was a horrible temp so i was a little worried. What temp do you think I SHOULD be getting worried at?

Ya it isn't stellar but not horrible. 70C is when you should start to worry. The sound of it is that you are running a stock cooler. A decent aftermarket can be had for cheap and will lower those temps.

So it won't hurt my CPU at all? 70C is when it starts to hurt it?

No 65C or 70C shouldn't hurt it at all really unless it is there 24/7. However, if you start reaching those temps it is a pretty good indicator that you are having some sort of cooling problem that needs to be fixed before damage does occur. ie prolonged excursions over 70C even higher temps etc.

I have an i5 6600k stock and I have the same temps with a cryorig h7. But I'm using my igpu atm because I'm waiting for my 1070 to arrive, does the igpu make the template go up more?
