Get a head check done first, this is a simple and quick chemical test to check for Co in the cooling system, if so you will have a head problem.

if your car is overheating and your radiator is cool it's bad. it should feel warm/hot all over if there are cold spots you need a new radiator. make sure your thermostat is ok though.
