Ok so your rooted but the real question is are you running a custom kernel and if you are most custom kernel's are overclocked by defult Im running a custom kernel and I hover around 1562 awake and with screen off 192 and i play he game's like asphalt 6 for a hour or so and my screen doesn't heat up however it did before I was rooted and running a custom ROM and kernel it could be your kernel

Compare the sensation to a laptop..
When u use your laptop alot it heats up but then the fan comes in..
Since the sensation is as a notebook in CPU ( dualcore 1.2) like a Packard bell dot-s (old model 1.3 ghz dualcore) but without any cooling the CPU and when overclocked gpu getting hot.
My advice don't use it to much although most chipsets can handle 90 degrees before it auto shuts off (on a laptop) and on the phone I dunno but I guess it can handle 50-60 degrees
