Gigabyte X670E Aorus Master AM5 Motherboard Review

Boot Time

So as I mentioned, benchmarks are for the most part pretty useless, especially when all boards on the same platform, using the same CPU, GPU and memory, perform within a range of each other with the only benchmark that we did that actually shows something being the boot time as this really is board specific, especially with the way they work with DDR5 through the memory training they have to do.

I suspect this is very closely tied to the fantastic memory speed and latency performance we saw earlier, but this motherboard boots significantly faster than its rivals. 24.41 seconds is very swift, as these flagship boards typically do take longer to load, due to the sheer volume of connectivity hardware they contain that needs to be loaded up first.
