There could be a few things causing this:

1. Background process - Make sure that you don't have a lot of background process running while your game is running
2. Start up programs - These will start every time your laptop starts and will run eating the ram when you are playing the game. Turn off any that is not needed
3. Anti virus - Some anti virus software are resource hogs, if you find that it is taking a lot of ram, then choose a lighter one

You could try and put it on a cooling pad and see if its happening. I don't think its hardware related as the gtx 860m is quite strong enough to play the games you have mentioned. Try the above and get back to me

Do you have the latest drivers? Otherwise it is likely the game is corrupted somehow.

Try that but I don't think that is the reason. I have played battlefield 3 on my laptop and had no problem with it and it has worser specs than yours. What settings are you playing the games at?

that's normal for watch dogs as it's very bad optimized, the 880m only renders 35fps and the 870m 31fps.

That is very strange for battlefield as it should be able to handle this. Does this happen when you run the game at the lowest setting for battlefield?
