Samsung Galaxy S5 (T-Mobile) Problems [Overheating]

I understand that the 5.1.1 update had overheating problems but those were semi fixed in a minor update. Still gets overheating problems sometimes when playing games but I think it's only because they were considered intense. Now I upgraded to Marshmallow (6.0.1) and i notice my phone overheats alot more. I'm just scrolling through webpages at 30%-60% brightness and the screen just becomes too hot to the touch as well as the back. It gets cooler but only by a little. It still remains hot to the touch with the screen off. What I did notice is that the middle left side of the phone starts getting hot. I looked up the phone on iFixit and noticed that it was where the CPU and the RAM warming up a lot. CPU temperatures could range from 42 C (107 F) to 60 C (140 F). Idling temps. could range from 40 C (104 F) to 50 C (122 F). I notice at least 1100 MB out of 1705 MB of ram would be in use which was higher compared to 5.1.1 (700 MB). The RAM usage is when the phone is IDLING.

Picture attached to show where is it heating up
Wondering if anyone else has this problem and a solution to it?
