You list neither the game nor your system specs. Both may be of help here.

Does this only happen in one game?

I would try:

• 
  ■ Different graphics drivers
  ■ Different games
  ■ Change the graphics settings in the game giving you problems
  ■ Make sure the game is up to date
  ■ Make sure the game is not modded
  ■ Make sure no game files are corrupted
  ■ Undo any overclocks for the purposes of testing

If the issue persists beyond a software solution, it could be hardware related. Your graphics hardware or power supply could be malfunctioning.
