I came here just looking to see if there's a problem with my setup cuz it takes so long to boot into my pc. I've had this problem for more than a year now and i dont know whats causing it.

If it isnt a problem and its a normal thing, would it be a good idea to disable it? I really dont wanna wait 30s to boot my pc.

 

Specs:

Motherboard: TUF GAMING B650-PLUS WIFI

Cpu: AMD Ryzen 5 7600

Gpu: AMD Radeon RX 6800XT

Psu: Thermaltake GF1 750W PC ATX 80-Plus Gold

Ram: 2x16GB GSkill F5-6000J3636F16GX2-FX5

Hate to ask the obvious question but have you tried reseating the CPU and RAM? I don't know much about that specific board other than its asus's midgrade gaming board, but pretty sure the yellow debug light is a DRAM light.

The system is memory training on boot, this is very normal for AM5 systems.

 

It is one of the few downsides of AMD at this time and there is no way to fix it, because it is working as designed/intended.

Common build advice:

1) Buy the cheapest (well reviewed) motherboard that has the features you need. Paying more typically only gets you features you won’t use. 2) only get as much RAM as you need, getting more won’t (typically) make your PC faster. 3) While I recommend getting an NVMe drive, you don’t need to splurge for an expensive drive with DRam cache, DRamless drives are fine for gamers. 4) paying for looks is fine, just don’t break the bank. 5) Tower coolers are usually good enough, unless you go top tier Intel or plan on OCing. 6) OCing is a dead meme, you probably shouldn’t bother. 7) "Bottlenecks" rarely matter and "Future-proofing" is a myth. 8) AIOs don't noticably improve performance past 240mm.

It literally takes 1min to boot, is there any way to shorten the time or even disable it?

No. It needs to do that to boot. It is like that for most AM5 chips, Mobo and RAM combos (and it is basically just luck).

Look at it this way, atleast your not stuck with a slower overheating and board killing 13th/14th gen intel CPU... A slightly slow boot time is a small price to pay for AM5s efficent performance.
