• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Is UEFI really this fast?

No, it's not. They are doing something different entirely, but UEFI helps. You will not see a boot up that fast on Windows 7 with a UEFI mobo. Mine certainly doesn't cold boot anywhere near that fast with a UEFI and an SSD.
 
So how long does POST take with UEFI, vs BIOS? Windows boot time is reduced drastically in Win 8, but POST is still a big contributor, and I want to know how much that improves with UEFI.
 
Remember that they're not doing a real cold boot in that video. Will remain to be seen if- what is effectively a sleep/hibernate replacement- is effective/not buggy for long-term use.
