    no, not normal. Is your heatsink/fan AMD approved or better? is it working/plugged into the the right place (cpufan - not sysfan or auxfan etc.). Did you use any thermal paste?

    Wow, 70C...
    Maybe you should put some more thermal paste on that.
    Where are you checking your Temperature?
