It's obviously a hardware\driver issue.

This is how a overheated graphics card looks like.

And right, this will only happen in ArmA3. Because ArmA is stressing the graphics adapter more than any other program.

You can continue to use this card for other games.

When you get a new graphics adapter, make some breaks between two rounds and don't play for to long!

Definately Driver/Hardware issue from the looks of it as Pepe said above.

You could try verifying the game cache through Steam, but I don't think that is the issue.
Try reinstalling your GPU drivers and maybe DirectX runtimes.

What GPU are you using and have you got any idea about what temps it and your CPU are running at while you're playing ArmA?

Im using a GeForce GTX 750, what do you mean DirectX runtimes.. and no i don't know the temps of it when im running the game.. idk how to check it i'll try verfying the game cache for now.
I opened my PC case and placed a normal fan near it, it worked a little for now haha XD but its just temporary

Easiest way to reinstall the DX runtimes is to go to your ~\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3\_CommonRedist\DirectX\Jun2010 and click on the DXSETUP.exe there. It will reinstall everything needed.

Best known utility for monitoring your system is probably MSI Afterburner[gaming.msi.com]. Latest version is 4.2.0 and will show you more than you'll want to know about your computer.

If this is helping then you probably have an overheating component. Check all the fans in your case and your CPU/GPU to make sure they are free of dust. Also check the fins on any heat exchangers and make sure there are no obstructions to airflow.
