Maybe the CPU is just on the weak side for those games but the general diagnostic is you might have some Power Saving plan defined in Windows (What is acknowledge as a performance killer with Intel CPUs and PCSX2).
You should try changing to a "Performance Power Plan" at Windows Control Panel -> Power Options. Beware it might overheat the notebook and must be monitored.
Notice that there is not much PCSX2 team can do to prevent that overheating, it's a notebooks construction issue when the CPU is demanded and not allowed to fluctuate as you are seeing now. Is highly advisable you provide the maximal air flow possible while playing not only PS2 emulation as any other demanding application as well. Consider acquiring fan powered pads to sit the notebook on top.
REMEMBER to return the Power Plan to saving after playing.
