Hello all,
I just upgraded my rig and am having a very long boot time. I cant for the life of me figure out why. I upgraded from a i5 6600k, Asus Strix z290e gaming motherboard. The new parts are a i7 9700k, Asus Maximus XI hero (WiFi), and a new GPU which is a Asus ROG Strix rtx 2070 OC. I did not use a new boot drive, which is a Samsung SSD m.2 960 evo, I just took it off the old board and put it on the new board after I posted and went into the bios to set a few things. I powered off then put the ssd on the new board. Also I had to put the GPU in the second pci slot due to a shorter than I thought pci extension cable. I made a custom desk and inlay-ed the computer parts under glass in my desk and measured wrong. On the new motherboard is the second pci slot x16 or x8? any advise would be appreciated.
