Maximus hero X - boot time - Nvme questions

[Asryan]

Hi,

I've installed an NVME SSD on my rig recently (Samsung P961 , which is actually 960Evo in OEM )

It's installed on M2-1, i've put everything on PCIE x 4, disabled CSM ( i read it was better?)
I've made a fresh install of windows on it and the NVME is GPT

Though i found it long to boot but i'm actually not sure to be NVME related since it just takes time to load bios

Here's a video to show you what is happening : https://youtu.be/m-agiInFAQI




thanks for your help !


Oh ok. well the issue came after I installed the NVMe actually so i guess that's a lead but It's weird that all seem well configured .. But I don't have any q code error, always A0



Should I clone my Windows partition on another drive to boot on it and test if it boots normally?

Well after all 18s is not bad but I just wanna understand 　

All I tried so far

Disable CSm
Disable fast startup in windows
Update Bios
Unplug all Usb before powering up Pc
Check if all PCIE are on X4
Installed Intel rapid storage (saw that it fixed the issue for someone)
tried XMP or without XMP

you could probably also reduce the bios screen duration via the bios. I reduced mine by a few seconds.

under dram timings near the bottom is a option called mch fullcheck and some other one both check ram timings and train the ram
