I haven't heard of that issue before which makes me think it's an issue with your hardware rather than Arma/DayZ.

Are your GFX drivers and so on up to date?

Does this happen in Arma or just DayZ or both?

To me this sounds very much like overheating. Try cleaning out your rig with a vacuum cleaner. A friend of mine had the same issue of the pc crashing after a fixed amount of time. The screen would flickr white and then die, if that is what you are seeing it might be overheating

edit: can you also tell if you are overclocking your graphics card or cpu? Too much overclocking causes internal failures within the chip which causes ' artifacting' to occur on the screen. Looks something like this bf22006110112574889xd4.jpg

Your way of writing is very annoying, but maybe it's me. Try skipping the capital letters at the beginning of each word :P.

Ontopic: I had the exact same problem last year, but since I couldn't figure out what the problem was, I just threw the computer away and bought a new one.

Very annoying problem for sure, hope you work it out :).

Sounds like an overheating problem. I would download some temperature monitoring tools to keep an eye on what tempature your CPU and GPU are running at while in game.
