when you play high spec graphic based games your cpu and graphics card get worked very hard and produce more heat.

Check cpu fan and graphics card fans are working first.

Then, clean any dust out of your computer using a can of compressed air. Be very careful not to damage anything. DO NOT use a vacuum cleaner, they produce lots of static, static and microchips don't go together.

If you're still having a problem then you may need additional cooling in your system.
