Question asus x99 strix very slow boot (2-3 minutes at least)

[Sinik]

Hello

so my pc has always been booting very slowly, always took over a minute,

now i did this latest bios update, and it's gotten even worse: at least 2-3 minutes, sometimes once a day +-) the pc freezes and i have to reboot it, when i reboot it says overclocking has failed, ive tried ddifferent settings, using the optimal assus thing, then normal, xmp profile on, disabled, nothing seems to work well...

fast boot option in bios is enabled

what can i do to have a fast boot, stable settings, and may be a small easy overclock. please help

my specs:

asus strix x99
intel i7 6800k
8x8gb corsair red led 3000mhz
asus strix 1070
samsung 850 pro 512gb
2x3tb wd green

is SATA mode set to AHCI in BIOS?

Revert all defaults and disable fast boot for now. Once OS loads, use Magician to update the boot drive's firmware (if available) and download and install the latest chipset drivers for the board from ASUS website.

I know you said you were stable, but have you run Memtest86 or a CPU stress test? I would do that and see if you have instability there causing the issue.

Will it boot with RAM at 2133? 3000mhz requires 125 BCLK IIRC

I would also run just a single DIMM for tshooting purposes.
