So got a new laptop today and while running Minecraft and a web browser with a tab or 2 open...the CPU runs at 70c?
I know laptops are more able in terms of temps, but is 70c normal?

What do you mean more "able in terms of temps"?
Anything below 95°C is fine if it's a sandy/ivy bridge.
95°C is 95°C, doesn't matter if it's a desktop or a mobile CPU. The limit is the same.
You can always try to reapply tim. Had so many laptops without tim on the cpu..
Well okay, I won't worry so much. :} I just got this laptop today and it's a beauty.
i7 6330QM Ivy Bridge at 2,4 Ghz which can go to 3,4 on Turbo, whatever that means.
650M Nvidia GPU.
Thing is, it has a 15,6 inch width so it is not so ideal for gaming in LoL as I thought. :P Still doable but desktop is much better.

Both desktop and laptop chips have the same TJ Max of 105C (Intel).
Desktop overclockers don't like to push the temperatures past 80C but in a laptop, you don't really have a choice.
i7-3630QM
Probably has more to do with resolution than screen size.
