From the Start to SPC's death.
One, two hours?

Since people always prattle on about how super fast the actual fights are combined with the fact that "5 minutes" of battle can translate to like 5 episodes(SSJ Goku vs Freeza) then the Cell Games could've gone way faster than people expect.
It was probably 6 mins. :D

The fight with Goku likely took no more than 10 minutes.
Then there were a few minutes of talking as Goku surrendered, and Gohan was appointed.
There was the initial fight between Gohan and Cell.
Cell Jrs popping out and fighting likely took a few minutes as well.
There was the beatdown of Cell, Goku's sacrifice, and Cell's return and subsequent defeat.
Yeah it looks like 1-2 hours.

Lol so many things in the span of 2 hours. Gohan had enough time to study afterwards.
