I recently upgraded my PC with new components (7800x3d + Strix B650 motherboard with 32GB DDR5 RAM) and installed them. I left my old boot drive untouched, which is a Samsung SATA SSD. When the computer starts, it takes a long time to cycle through all the debug lights before launching Windows. Eventually, all the lights turn off and I immediately see the login screen. However, I think booting with the new parts was much quicker. Are there any solutions for this issue, or is this just something I need to accept? I know it’s not ideal to move my old drive to a brand-new system, but I did so due to changing plans and impatience. My PC hasn’t had any problems otherwise.
What operating system were you using? Did you enable XMP, DOCP, or EXPO settings? This seems related to memory optimization, as AMD processors often need time to initialize after installation.
It's mainly AM5 with a slow start due to memory optimization. If needed, you can enable memory context restoration, which will revert the last training when memory isn't required, saving time for most systems.
