so, I built a monster pc for editing, it contains a xeon e5 2696v3, 14gb ddr4 ram, gtx980, 250ssd m2 for OS, samsung evo, 500gb ssd samsung evo, and a lot of terabytes, so you get the idea, and the motherboard taking care of it is the Asus x99 deluxe 2!
the problem is, I expected it to be very fast turning on and is slower than my older i7 2600, gtx680,8gb ddr3 ram, and OS on sata ssd. also, I went to download the drivers on Asus website and there is a sh*t ton of drivers to download, and I don't know which should I download it and install. I downloaded a bunch of drivers for the deluxe 2 and one of the softwares made my pc have error during post. the big question is: how can I speed up my pc so it is faster at opening simple tasks as chrome(takes longer than I expected it to take given its power), my MacBook Pro opens up adobe premiere way faster, so I wanted to optimize that pc so it is fast at everything, because rendering times and playback of 4k videos is awesome, that he can do it easily and beautifully!
 
Solution
Probably won't get any faster then. You could try limiting the time your bios screen posts and disable the boot screen logo. that's about it.
