Did you check the oil to see if it was milky looking? Do you have a lot of water vapor coming from your exhaust?
If you do then you have a blown head gasket.
If thats not it then you could have a bad temp sending unit and the fan isnt coming on.
Also like rfcsoulja said, burp for an air bubble.
A temp sending unit is cheap, replace it and see if that works.
