Boot to desktop test on a Core i5-10500 Dell Desktop with Windows 11:

(started stopwatch the moment Windows' "restarting" message disappears and stopped it when the Windows Desktop appeared on screen)

2C2T - 26 secs

2C4T - 23 secs

6C12T - 20 secs

You can choose when to start your stopwatch. Just keep it consistent between the changed core/thread runs to see how the times are affected.

Curious to see how old or slower CPUs do.
