It's brilliant. I'll have a different board in use tonight, but on the ASUS P8Z77-V Pro and 3570K it was like SSD speed on my WD Caviar. There is was NO post---just a beep then 2 or 3 seconds of blank screen, then Windows splash screen.
I'll time it this time, but so far it's like this: the Windows load animation completes, does one "pulse" cycle and I get a logon screen. Logon time is still the same.
edit:
I should have googled that, csuse it's for SSD's. It was enabled on my ASUS but on this Gigabyte it is greyed out.. so that is when I checked to see about it.

But something about the booting on Z77 is definitely improved. There is almost zero POST time and a full Windows loading reminds me of a brand new OS install.

Can't wait for both things!
right now doing 4.8 @1.365v chugging prime95 max temp is 88c looking pretty good but didn't like the voltage bump needed
