slowdown from GC games

I'm experiencing slowdown while playing GC games that were ported from Dreamcast such as Sonic Adventure 2: Battle and Skies of Arcadia. When the slowdown is happening my CPUs are both running at 85% capacity, and my GPU is at 66% capacity. Furthermore i checked and found that my GPU's fan turns on when the GPU is at 70ºC, and stays on until it hits about 50ºC, during the slowdown the fan was on and the GPU was at 60ºC, so i don't think it's being throttled for cooling reasons...

I also noticed that while playing games with a 3x higher primitive count, like pikmin, the GPU is runs at 20% capacity, and my CPUs at 65%, so is this some kind of a glitch in the ports, or does it have to do with my computer not being good enough?

specs:
3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB 800 MHZ RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS
OS X 10.6.7
