Yes its normal, its haswell and not exactly the top of the line cooler. And yes the Nvidia magic drivers will make CPU also run hotter.

Cool, thanks.

Huh?
Maybe you misunderstood me. I meant maybe my gpu is running hotter due to different airflow in my case now with that cpu cooler, or maybe it's just the new NVIDIA beta drivers.

4th Gen (Haswell) high-end CPU's are notoriously hot due to Intel fudging up the TIM-bond between silicon and lid making it difficult to cool no matter what since the CPU silicon doesn't have good contact with the lid (hence the reason many many overclockers delidding their CPU's, reapplying TIM and either put a cooler straight on the silicon (ultimate heat transfer but also ultimate risk of crushing/killing CPU) or reattach the lid (second best solution). I've seen the horrible results from some i7 4770K's with cracks, crushed etc. either due to heatsink-pressure on the CPU being too high or because the silicon expands from the heat and crushes itself.
Apparently the new upcoming Haswell-E K-series have fixed this issue.
A tip would be to get a Corsair H100i (watercooler) or similar. I don't know how the 212 Evo compares to high-end closed-loop watercoolers with good static pressure fans though. But as I said before, a lot of CPU-heat won't reach the cooling lid and thus you're cooling the lid a lot but not so much the CPU (without delidding and fixing the TIM-issue).

I thought that intel are a bit more sensitive to high heat, compared to AMDs. 70°C during some gaming sounds a bit high for a CPU, especially if you plan to OC later? :/
