Which version of windows are you using and how much RAM do you have?

 

[maviis]

im using windows 7 ultimate, i have 8gb ripjaws. also im running i3 540 and a gtx 650 ti, thought it might help

Does it happen when playing any other game?

 

[maviis]

nope, it doesnt. just happens in dota 2.

It could be the game client or video card drivers. You should try doing a clean install of the previous drivers to see if that resolves the problem. Since this is also only happening to DOTA 2 you may want to check their forums to see if anyone else has had this problem.
