I'm affraid it would be killing my cpu. Mine E6600 at 3.6ghz 1.468v 100% load dioda temps is above 70 degree celcius. It's that all right?

Intel recommends temperature below 61.2C.
But then I've seen people running full load at 67C stable.
Your temp above 70C is a bit high. It's about the temperature where cache memory will start to fail.
