    I’m not sure what’s up with mine, but it takes like a full 20-30 seconds to get past POST and then another 3 seconds from there to fully boot windows.

          I also have a zen4 cpu.

          The 30 second boots are memory training. The motherboard is basically training itself on how the DDR5 memory modules respond on every signal wire and it can be inordinately slow depending in memory amount. For whatever reason, AMD DDR5 systems are slower at it than comparable Intel DDR5 systems.

          Update your BIOS to the latest version then enabled “Memory Context Restore”. The bios will then save the last training results and stop taking 30 seconds to start up.

    Don’t know why but i had a bug (don’t know if i still do) on Linux, if i don’t turn on the monitor fast enough, it will never pick up the video signal until i start a session or restart the pc. It drove me crazy sometimes.

      Have you tried windows? It’s similar to linux but it works, you’ll get the hang of it real quick

        Is it a rolling distro or LTS? How many packages in the official repo? How easy is it to use? What desktop environment does it install by default? Does it package a recent Plasma? Oh and I’m assuming it’s systemd right?

      Just wait until that one time you PC doesn’t lock properly and you type your password into a group chat.
