Did AMD/mobo vendors fix boot times yet? Last I heard AM5 stuff was taking insanely long to boot like 60 seconds.

Even on the MSI Gaming stream they openly admit that they are pro Intel. Like the Claw was not enough. This is the same company that secretly launched 7000 GPUs without announcing them. This statement is the height of hypocrisy.

This is long gone for several months.

This is only for my hardware.

Ryzen 7600X / Asus prime x670-P mainboard / 2x32GiB RAM @6000 MT/s
( Kingston FURY Beast Black EXPO DDR5 64GB (2x32GB) 5600MT/s DDR5 CL36 DIMM Desktop Gaming Speicher Kit mit 2 - KF556C36BBEK2-64)

Since previous two uefi version, basically last month, the box warm and cold boots kinda instantly. Previous I had sometimes the need to use several times a reset during warm boots
A lot of my RAM settings are hard coded in UEFI and are not on auto mode.
I switch on my outlet strip. The POST Screen (power on self test screen) is around 5 seconds maximum.

Boot times really are a nothing burger on AM5 now.

If you can use newer BIOS it is apparently fixed.

I can't say, as MSI broke support for WD NVME drives over a year ago in their BIOS so I'm stuck with 14 month old, slow booting BIOS like a bunch of other MSI X670E board owners.

Yes WD (Sandisk) NVMe have been troublesome for a few users on all platforms.
Have you tried to update the drives firmware?

No outstanding FW updates for either of my WD drives. Also impacts some Samsung drives.

It is clearly an MSI issue as they work on older BIOS for the motherboard. Other motherboard brands don't have the issue, so it is clearly MSI being rubbish. They claim they can't reproduce the issue, yet the number of people in MSI forums, reddit etc with the problem shows it isn't a one-off.

There were several bugs related M2 NVME related to mainboards. I lost the overview of the related bugs. Kinda happens very often and kinda happens quite regularly. Kinda happens to DRAM less "cheap" drives a lot too. SAMSUNG has a long history of bad firmware over many, many, many, many years. I had SANDISK(c?) SSDs which were problematic like ADATA ones. WD bought Sandisk ages ago.
Crucial has issues with SSDs.

I do understand the criticism about MSI mainboard.

I would blame WD or the operating system in question. Just one example.

However, since only WD and SanDisk NVMes were the affectees, it appears that there was an underlying problem in the firmware on some models, which are as follows:
Which implies that WD, who bought Sandisk, sold drives with not tested and checked firmware(=Software) of the drive.

I just thought about the WD - SN770

Content exists in a gnu linux live cdrom but it seems it fails in windows.

-- I do have a 1TB WD SN570 Blue in use in an external USB to NVME bridge case. Does it job as external backup drive. Never tested in a mainboard.

In my point of view: The linux kernel has a lot of "bug fixes" for faulty hardware. Now it hits windows users.

The problem is it's not detecting the drives in the BIOS. So it's nothing to do with the OS installed on them - it never gets that far.

I've read other motherboard manufacturers encountered and fixed this as it was to do with low power states when starting up.

I have the ROG Strix B650E-E motherboard, running the latest bios (Version 3056) and it still takes at least 30 seconds to boot.

Anyone else know of motherboards that don't have this issue?
