Odd or Normal DDR5 Behavior?

[OptimusRiv]

Specs:

Ryzen 7 7800X3D/

Gigabyte OC RTX 4070 Super/

MSI B650M MAG Mortar wifi/

predator GM7000 ssd/

32 GB, 6400 mhz, ddr5 Trident Z ram/

be quiet pure loop 2fx 360mm/

corsair RM750e

 

After finishing this build it seems to exhibit some odd behavior when booting up. When it first turns on, the CPU light on the motherboard will stay a static red until it posts and starts running, which takes quite a while, like over a minute at least. Even when restarting the system, it will take a really long time to boot up again, and during a restart none of the RBG turns off, and the CPU light doesn't turn on. The DRAM light stays a static yellow during both first power up, and when restarting, then turns off when the system is running. What could be causing this? I know Ddr5 ram tends to cause a bit of a longer boot time, but this feels way longer than normal.
Could the CPU be damaged in a way that causes this? Could the power supply be limiting things given the Ryzen 7 and 4070 super pairing? Is the ram speed more than is necessary for the CPU? I need advice

This might cause issues, 6400MT/s is a very fast for Ryzen 7000, it's 50/50 whether it will work in 1:1 mode and if you're in 2:1 mode it will be super slow. 

 

 

Anyway, as for the training time, over a minute is definitely long, but for an early BIOS it's not that atypical. What BIOS revision are you on?

Maybe updating your bios firmware to the most recent one and disabling xmp or docp depending on your motherboard. If those don't work, we'll look in further but maybe it may come down to your cpu.

Yeah it takes about 2 minutes to load into Windows. 
When I check the Bios version through it says A.A0, 12/15/2023, so I think that's version 7D76vA8 judging from MSI's support website.

It's going to be version 7D76vAA, which seemingly was pulled from MSI's website. Doing a BIOS update here is probably a good idea because of that, I'd go to version 7D76vAG.
