Takes 12sek between turning on the computer and splash [Ranger]

[bakteria]

Got this board yesterday and I was baffled by how long time it takes for the board to initiate. There is a 12 sec delay from the time I press the button on the computer until the display initiates and shows splash.
From splash to login is shorter than the actual initiation-process.
On the board you can see lights flash and the little display going through sequences. Is there a way to turn the self check off?

Coming from a Gene VII which had a fast initiation this is just mind blowing.

I've noticed the same thing but it seems much quicker if you disable CSM and use onboard graphics. There must be a way to boot faster using a PCIE graphics card...

DDR4 memory training does require more time to complete compared to DDR3. If boot time is important for you, you can tweak the different settings in the Boot tab in the BIOS. Also installing Windows in UEFI mode helps with boot time as well.

if your system is stable you can enable MRC fastboot in DRAM timing menu. This will ignore the memory training and just boot. WAY faster. Cut down 10 sec on my boot when i did it.

You see I have two screens in portrait.If I disable CSM the default screen that gets picked is a portrait one. I have yet to find out how you change the default screen. I don't have the option to change connections. I have 4 screens and every cable just barely reaches.

I have already tweaked the settings in the boot tab. And I am using UEFI bootloader.
This is only the time it takes to reach splash. From splash to boot is less than 10 sek. I just timed it and its 15 sek just to get the splash screen.

What do you mean by stable? I have not overclocked anything yet and haven't had any crashes. Are there any risks involved?

Enabling that option will bypass memory training during each boot.

What is memory training? Never heard of it.

My system from shutdown...

Press power button...4 seconds...RoG UEFI splash displayed...8 seconds...OS (Win10 UEFI mode )starts loading.

So mine takes 12 seconds from power on to OS starts loading. Is that the sort of delay you're getting?
