After applying last bios update something strange happen

[Martin007]

Hi
I have MAG-X570S-TOMAHAWK. and I updated the bios yesterday. Today while I am booting the first booting screen took very long time. So I shutdown and tried again but booting was fast and normal. Why this behavior ?

Normal.

Yes unless the system looses power, like flipping the switch on the PSU.

About 10 sec today to see bios screen

Normal.

Normal my X570S Torpedo basically boot loops twice on a new BIIOS for memory training

ok thanks

Reminds me of socket 775 and 1366 motherboards, they take long enough that you wonder if it failed to POST.
Same with Gigabyte motherboards in the later-2010s.

Especially most of my socket AM4 motherboards, that will happen when powered up after being unplugged. Especially ASRock B550 PG Velocita.
Even when I never heard of AM4 taking a long time like AM5.

Even when I suspect my 1366 takes the longest, besides the Gigabytes mentioned and AM4 on first power up.

Because DDR5 has a training mode and you need the "context restore" option to skip that check on every boot!

some on reddit say they get bsod without this options and waiting long time to boot

You have ddr4.

I sold my MSI b550 gaming edge wifi 2 years ago. I had it for 2 years in use.

up to 30 seconds on bootup I would not worry with ddr4.

Uefi Settings + how you turned of your computer + which operating system + which uefi version have influence on the bootup times.

Sometimes I waited over 10 minutes to see a bootscreen with ddr5. Reading manga on my android tablet while waiting.

-- I think memory training or not clean shutdown is the issue for your question.

-- bsod = stable test DRAM takes time and knowledge and patience. afaik ddr4 = 3200mt/s ... check the processor page from amd for those supported guaranteed speeds for dram.

one more reason not to upgrade for me. but will this problem remain with future technology ?
