Reading someone posting their temp for cpu hitting up to 100dC, i am wondering what is the normal temperature for i5 6500.

I did some test it was up to 70dC, it is normal or too hot for Malaysia environment? As i read online @ 70dC it is at max recommended temperature..

A little too hot if you asked me. Please check the CPU cooler is working optimally ie clear out any dust etc. You may also want to consider cleaning out the current thermal compound and re-apply.

Btw, I am assuming your case is properly ventilated too ie in-take fans and exhaust fans. If not, open the side panel and see if temp drops

Test was done using AIDA64 i think.. to full run all cores 100%. It hit 71dC for 8hrs.

Gaming i remember around 50 to 60.

Normal? As still something wrong with my cpu cooler?

Ah.....if the temp of 70C is when running load test, ok la. I thought 70C was when idle, die lor. 50-60 during normal gaming usage is quite normal

Case ventilation, I usually recommend 2 intake fans for front panel and 1 exhaust fan either at rear or top rear. Make sure you have fans for airflow rather than static pressure for case ventilation.
