Computer freezes on games

Currently I only play Dota 2 and Arma II, but they both do this odd thing where they'll freeze for about 2-3 seconds and then continue where I was perfectly fine. It's been doing this for a month or 2 now and I'm not sure it's a bad thing or not. Any ideas?
 
Solution
The cpu gets overly hot. It stops and cools down then starts again.

Clean out your cpu cooler. Jack up the fan rpm

If its a pc, try 're-seating' the cooler (Google it)
