Maybe there is too much dust inside the case that the heatsink can't dissipate the heat properly.
You need good ventilation inside the case. But it doesn't mean you need half a dozen fans in it. Ideally, you need one or two front intake fan and one or two exhaust fans. Air need to come into the case at the same speed (or volume) as it goes out. Otherwise pressure will build up inside the case and this will increase the temperatures. (BTW, I have one exhaust fan + the fan in the power supply unit, and not a single intake fan. Not only that; the exhaust fan is working with only 7V instead of the 12V so it's running slower than default. CPU fan only runs at 900rpm!!! Yeah, you read it right
After all this, my CPU is about 10-15 degrees cooler than my hard drive!!! But this is a Core 2 Duo 
)
Anyways...
Maybe you would want to take out the CPU heatsink and clean it up. You will have to clean the contact surfaces of both the heat sink and the CPU heat spreader. I used to wipe it with a tissue paper and polish it with a new tissue paper so that there aren't any residue. But when fitting the heatsink back, you have to apply some fresh (clean) thermal paste. You will have to buy some off a PC shop. So, before removing the heatsink, make sure you have some thermal paste lying next to you. There are very good thermal pastes, but in Sri Lanka, I doubt you will be able to find any good ones (such as Arctic Silver 5). Nevertheless, you HAVE to apply thermal paste, even it's junk, otherwise the CPU might fry eventually because of bad contact between the heat sink and the CPU heat spreader.

thankz ayya...
hey Anusha ur damn right man. My pc is 3.0Ghz with old 915GEV mother board. And its also heated 65C or up ( when 100% CUP useage ). So i install three sucking in fans ( side bottom of the cassing ) and two sucking out fans ( one is mount top of the casing and one is mount back side ) so now its heated 50c to up ( when 100% CUP useage ).

tell me about Prescott cpu. ayya,
i'm using stock cooler that comes with the processor.
wat i hav 2 do?
help???

Prescotts are the ones that has 1MB or more L2 cache.
If the PC is stable, then don't worry much about it. I don't think you are gonna use that PC for 10 years, so I don't think 70C will kill it. Also see if it's really that hot by touching the heatsink. It could be that the thermal sensor if reading a wrong value.
My cousing has a Prescott 3GHz CPU and even after I replaced his stock cooler with a Gigabyte heatpipe cooler (can't remember the name, damn!), stil the temperatures were reaching mid 70s. I wouldn't worry that much about it if your system is rock solid (means no random crashes or reboots).
