could be the thermostat, not opening properly, even new ones have been known to fail, there really cheap, its good insurance, and youll have an extra one if it aint the prob, but about a year ago, i had overheating probs, and had just gotten a new radiator, turns out it was a bad cap blowing fluid out and then being really low on fluid, bought a new rad cap, filled fluid, prob fixed... could also not be in your cooling system.... check your oil level, color and smell, see if anything strange is going on
