I've been using this MSI motherboard for a few weeks now, and since installation it's been slow to respond. When I power it on, it identifies either RAM or the CPU, then after roughly a minute the DRAM and CPU indicators disappear and it begins logging. I have a Ryzen 7 7800X with 3D DRAM and 32GB DDR5 Trident Z RAM at 6000 MHz. Note* (even after it starts logging once the lights fade, it still takes about a minute to open Windows even with a Samsung 980 Pro NVMe SSD).
Remember that restoring memory requires enabling power-down mode as well. Otherwise, it might just start up without doing anything.
Only if you encounter BSODs after turning it on would that apply. I’d start with power-down mode first. So far, one computer with MCR enabled has problems, while others work fine.
