I would look at getting a better thermal monitoring and fan control app like [https://www.tunabellysoftware.com/tgpro/|TG Pro] I find its the best out there! Install it and disable/remove MacFanControl so you don't interfere with TG Pro. Post a screen snapshot of the main window making sure you capture all of the sensors (may need to take a second snapshot fo the ones at the bottom). [guide|21499]

Even still this sounds like you need to do a bit more! Have you cleaned the fan blades as well as the fin area of the heat sink so the heat is truly being pushed out? Also you might want to clean the old thermal paste and apply a fresh coat. Do be careful! Use the correct paste (TIM) as well as don't over do it! I often find messed up systems because people forget the purpose of the TIM is strictly the interface of the silicon chip (black part) and the heat sink. They just think if I triple if even more the amount would be better Nope! Worse! Little is the key here! Just enough not more than what is needed to cover the chip.

***Little is the key here!*** Just enough, not more than what is needed to cover the chip with a very thin coat.
