70° is a normal temp for an aircooled card. No need to worry at all.

Careful, I have heard anything over 40C is fatal to GPUs. I would recommend spending a couple hundred on liquid cooling to make sure your card doesn't die.

This is just ordinary use. It contributes toward the "wear and tear" of the card's expected lifespan, but at this rate it will probably last for years longer than you'll want to use it.

 

For what it's worth, I've only had a single video card truly "die" in ~20 years of gaming. That card, a Geforce 7800 GS, died within a year of purchase (i.e. not from typical use), and was replaced by BFG Tech under warranty.
