Will increasing the clock speed help shorten the initial boot period?
I'm using Windows 10 on a SSD with an i5 Skylake processor and don't face any major boot issues, but I'm always eager to experience faster startup times. Could slight overclocking make a difference?

The key element affecting boot times relates to the storage medium where Windows is installed. Although I observed quicker startup speeds with faster RAM, this occurred when using a traditional hard drive. Switching to an SSD results in extremely fast booting, leaving no room for other factors to improve the process.

I question whether there will be a significant reduction in boot time using oc.

The key element affecting boot times relates to the storage medium where Windows is installed. Although I observed quicker startups with faster RAM, this occurred when using a traditional hard drive. Switching to an SSD results in extremely rapid booting, leaving no room for other factors to improve speed.

When I power off my processor, I notice quicker startup times. I realized this after missing a few chances to press the delete key and adjust the OC. The first time I thought it was just a coincidence. The second time I felt my reflexes were acting up. The third time I kept pressing the key rapidly.

This typically occurs when fast boot is activated.

I didn't alter the boot type during the overclocking process... unless it auto-adjusts when you change the settings.
