From button pressed it takes roughly 60 seconds to get into Windows, out of which 40 seconds are just waiting for the actual boot to start. Problem is not software once I'm in Windows, because that part is really fast. It's like the motherboard doesn't post correctly but then wakes up all of a sudden.
Are your RAM and other speeds meeting expectations? The HUB video shared earlier is several weeks old, possibly containing BIOS updates. Their test indicates 42 seconds for Asus boards, which includes Windows, and it didn’t support the 6000 speed. Could you turn off additional settings in BIOS (such as disabling the logo screen)? I’m guessing you’ve already followed the usual steps. Someone with experience on Asus should be able to help.
