They are a hot running cpu, i have one, High GHz, they are pushed to their limit. 70c sounds about right on that heatsink/fan. I would suggest a cooling upgrade, such as a all in one watercooler,like a nzxt kraken x61/62 etc
Mine got 70s on gaming I now use a kraken x42 with two...

Mine got 70s on gaming I now use a kraken x42 with two fans on radiator (push/pull) and overclock my 4790k to 4.6 GHz, runs 50/55c on games at the most
