Changed my mainboard + CPU + RAM last year on January to a (at this time brand new model of Intel's i7 8 core) from an 5 year old Intel i7 quadcore.
The speed of game loading increased a little bit, the FPS ingame were higher as the CPU bottleneck was gone/got wider. So the FPS were my benefit and I'm happy with it.
Using about 30-50 addons depending on the day and mood.

But I always used an SSD and the speed of game loading will just decrease noticeably if you disable addons, especially that ones like MM that collect multiple thousand kbytes of data every time here and there.

So I don't think you can get a fast loading with abut 70 addons at all as the lua script lang and the CPU speed are limited by your harddrive's write (at reloadui etc.) and read speed.
Never put any further investigative time in it but I assume that the price of hardware is not worth the minimum changes of loading speed.
