Why do games slow down when the FPS are high?

So I'm some what confused about one thing. All of a sudden a couple of my games will slowdown. The slowdown almost looks like slow motion, yet my FPS are 60. Why does this happen? Any way to fix this problem? This will occur every now and again for 5-10 seconds, and seems to happening when entering a new area in a game (Metroid for example). I assume this is partially caused by caching data.

Specs:
i7 920 @ 3.2 ghz
6 gig ram
Radeon 5970
Windows 7 64bit
