I have seen posts where some assert the S8 does not throttle, but every games tested on two 835 stock devices all exhibit the same thing, regardless of settings or 5.0 version used. They all play smooth for the first five to ten minutes and then stutter repeatedly. The 8+ does not get very warm, but throttles none the less.
Games tested as example: Mario Kart, Mario Sunshine, Mortal Kombat, Smash Brothers, Soul Calibur 2, Smugglers Run, ATV 2, Hot Pursuit, Burnout Racing 2, FZero, Crash Racing.
They play impressively for the 5 to ten minutes, but that is about it.
Only some earlier versions of Dolphin 5 play Mario Kart without a dark screen, but speed was no better or worse with newer versions.
Would be cool if the throttling did not happen. Also would be cool if the enhancement and hack options were not blank with white screen, since have to test changes using a text editor in the ini file.
