Fastest Android emulator? (for gaming)

[Kadence]

I'm looking for an Android emulator for gaming (Game of War, Clash of Clans etc.).

Right now I'm using Bluestacks, but it's very slow. I know there's plenty of other emulators out there but I'm not sure which to try, also I think some are paid. I'm not inherently against paid, but first I want to know if any are faster than Bluestacks.

What other emulators out there are faster than Bluestacks? Or would they all be about the same speed?

Maybe try ARC Welder?

If you don't mind dual-booting, ConsoleOS has a toggle feature:

Lets you run it as a native OS & quickly swap between Android & Windows 8.1:

InstaSwitch – Thanks to “InstaSwitch” which leverages XenGT technology (Xen Graphics Virtualization), you’ll be able to switch instantly between Windows and Android.

Interesting, but I'm too lazy to register just to download and try it. That's lame.

I wonder how well it would do in a VM environment.
