I upgraded my setup with the latest components and firmware, but I'm still experiencing persistent issues. After changing BIOS settings and enabling memory optimization features, the system consistently takes over 90 seconds to boot. I've checked forums and found similar reports, but turning on context restore in BIOS didn't help. It seems the memory initialization is repeatedly delayed, possibly due to a conflict with the new BIOS configuration. I'm concerned about performance and reliability, especially since my old system booted quickly. Could you help identify the root cause or suggest alternative solutions? Also, it appears benchmark results haven't changed much despite these changes.

Sadly there aren't many options left, but I hope Asus will address this with a future BIOS update. I've learned that Gigabyte claims to offer quicker post, though it appears the problem is mainly with AM5+DDR5. I'm planning to assemble a new PC using the same motherboard, processor, and RAM, but these reports are making me think about switching to AMD for my next build.

I’ve set everything up identically and still facing the same issue. I’ve looked at the updated BIOS, verified the boot manager, checked the drive order, etc—but nothing resolves it. I think the problem lies with the motherboard or something similar, taking around 40 to 50 seconds to start.

I faced the same problem with this configuration. Initially, I assumed it was my AIO, but after checking online, it might be another cause. I’m hoping it gets resolved soon.

Uncertain if everyone has resolved the slow startup. My boot time is now well above 40 seconds, not the low 20s. Confirm you have the latest BIOS version 1415. In BIOS, choose the right EXPO profile—EXPO I works for my G.SKILL Trident Z5 Neo RGB 6000 with 32GB RAM. I own two sets totaling 64GB. Search for Context Restore and ensure both options are active. Save and restart; it should improve performance. The main problem now is freezing during Windows login. It lags while startup apps load, adding another 15 seconds before the screen becomes usable and the mouse responds properly.
