alright so here is the deal. I just built another computer my first UEFI experience mind you, and it seems like with my hardware choices i should have seen a much faster boot time...

-Asus z170 deluxe 

-Samsung 950 pro m.2 512g drive 

-Intel 6700k 

im used to legacy boot windows 7 and im not sure if i installed everything right or if i have a setting off in the uefi.

typical boot times are in excess of 50 seconds 

and are comprised of this sequence of screens 

EDIT:

using my smart phone as a stop watch i timed the start up with laps per event.

1-power on asus screen del and f2 (9.78sec)

2-black screen and back to asus screen del and f2 (4.95sec)

3-black screen new asus screen with windows halo of dots underneath (5.13sec)

4-black screen windows sign in (4.79sec)

 

seems like the windows part is much faster than the post.

start menu>msconfig>select the "Boot" tab>tick the box that says "Boot Log" and "OS boot information".

 

"Boot log" will create a log file in I believe C:\nbtlog.txt

 

"OS boot information" Will look scary, nah it displays what it's loading to your screen instead of a fancy animation.

 

Do post where the OS boot information hangs for a while and your bootlog.

CPU: Intel i5-3470

GPU: MSI GTX 780

OS: GNU/Linux.

well tweaking with some UEFI option i dont really understand like boot logo display, post delay time, option rom messages, interrupt 19 capture, ect ive gotten cold boot times down to <20sec an shut down times to <5sec.

EDIT: 

Even more tweaking with CSM and smart check and bam 13sec cold starts an 4 sec shutdowns with 21sec full restarts.

Sorry it's at C:\Windows\ntbtlog.txt

And the OS boot information is weird I don't know if they removed it or edited it in windows 10 but it doesn't matter that much as long as you have the ntbtlog.txt
