Me too finds problem of overheating of graphics card.

However common problem of restating during game are:
directX problem....video card problem..... sound card.

Some solutions for you:
1) Do u see..blue screen before system restarts.If yes:
start-->>right click my computer-->>properties-->>advance-->>startup and recovery setting-->>turn off automatic restart

2)Another cause can be overheating....chk the fans.And also clean the fans wings.

3) The SMPS power may not be enough.

4)try playing game a lower resolution.
