My relatives lent me their nvidia shield and I got to say. Despite the Shield having lower scores in benchmarks in 3Dmark, antutu, geekbench 3, and slower day to day use compare to my Exynos Note 4. I was surprised that I get better performance with the shield than with my note 4 on PPSSPP (psp emulator). Games that were unplayable, I was able to play at full speed or close to full speed now.

Whats the "secret" to the Shield's gaming performance? Is it less thermal throttling due to the heatsink? or is it due to it's powerful gpu?
