Is a CPU at 70° too hot?

Hello,
As I mentioned in the title, my Ryzen 5 3600 heats up to 70° during a Warzone session on ultra graphics + RTX on..
I have a TUF GAMING B450-Plus motherboard and a ROG STRIX RTX 2070, as well as 32GB at 3000MHz, that's all
I remember applying quite a bit of thermal paste... about 3-4 small dots...
Is it normal for it to reach 70° in a PC that is in a pretty nice case where air circulates well?

Hi,
Even with the most beautiful case, it doesn't mean the most efficient in cooling.
Moreover, the temperature of the processor mainly depends on the cooler you attach to it.
3-4 drops of thermal paste?! It's a small grain of rice, not 3 or 4... either.
70°C while gaming is not "abnormal" in itself, but it mainly depends on the cooler: if it's a stock one, it's normal, but if it's a super high-performance one, it's less normal.
But you don't clearly specify how your case is ventilated nor what the cooler is...
