A little off-topic.
Unfortunately this post is beyond my technical understanding. I don't know how to find a CSM function in the BIOS. The bios on the EVGA gtx 780 is 80.80.21.0.80. How do I determine if the video card has an UEFI enabled v-bios?

So I looked up for a manual of GA motherboards.
Looks nice. The download page on Github seems to be for some flavor of Linux. Can you post a link to a Windows executable/script.
I believe it is not right. My old spinner does faster than that. But are you not confusing OS boot time with pc boot time that includes PSU powering on, initial post screens, etc. and is different from system to system despite how fast boot device is installed?
The way I recorded boot time is event viewer after doing a restart. Someone else asked about stopwatches. I prefer automated systems in order to have a consistent and accurate measurement. Anyone know precisely how event viewer counts the boot time?
I always recommend Glary Utilities for a ton of little utilities that people often want, boot time measurement (including their assessment of where your rig is in the boot time pecking order) included. How is it intrusive? Don't want to go recommending spyware...
