if the heatsink isnt hot could that mean a problem with the thermal paste?

woowoo
does it also say that temp in your bios? it may not be an accurate reading... or it could be the right reading and you may not have proper contact between the heatsync and cpu.

The heat isn't being transfered from the CPU to the heatsink very well.
Make sure the heatsink is installed correctly and use a small amount of thermal paste such as Arctic silver.
Also I would like to point out that the title says 70°C yet you then say it's at 52°C. So which is it?
