At least in the limited scenarios I've tried it in - AM4, B450 chipset, two builds I've done. I might have a look for an updated driver for B650 and see if that improves the boot time on my Win11 install.

Oh, it is. I havent tried the latest chipset drivers, but I had a AMD 4650G before the current 5700G in the same MB and Win 10 (at the time) booted in less than 10s. It was soooo satisfying. Now I never get under 20s which is annoying, considering I have better RAM and CPU.

I just tried the latest chipset driver for my B650 setup and while it might be faster, it's not *much faster* like what I've seen with the B450.
