Its going to be initialising that drive somehow.
Check in the BBS properties i think its called.
In the BIOS in the boot menu.

As long as you didnt mess with any of those C1e etc settings in the BIOS (basically most of the bottom options in the advanced frequency section) and windows own power management is still on say "balanced" mode and not "high performance" the speedstep will still work.
I still think it's because you have something connected it's initialising/looking at before it continues.
Not been around lately as I have been busy doing stuff, but thats good to hear.
And your using the red slots? ive read that they tend to be better (on all Z170 boards the pair furthest away from the cpu not just this G7 board)
It just booted for me.
Another thing that can send the Vcore over the set value is the Load Line Calibration, I remember that the max setting does send it over.
Did you set Vcore to 1.3 or Auto or Normal?

Oh yeah, for got that option only becomes available when set to normal.
Fiddle with the LLC or use less offset if it doesnt need 1.4V to run safely.

Betas have the letters, then the "official" one with all the tweaks of that "group" gets just called F8, F7 etc.
So F8a,b,c,d,e,f,etc all goes to make up F8
Then if theres a F9a,b,c,d etc they will have more fixes and there should be a F9 after
then rinse+repeat.

Are all of the fan headers on the board PWM or is it just the CPU header? I'm getting conflicting information and it's causing me a bit of a nightmare when it comes to trying to run 12 PWM fans. They're all currently running at full tilt with no fan control either in the bios or from Windows apps
Yeah they are all PWM.
Do you have the fan connectors on properly and not "one pin of" so they are only acting like a 3pin fan header.
And you are using the calibrate fan setting in SIV - https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showpost.php?p=29519466&postcount=5
If you plug your fans directly into the board do they then work correctly? if they do then you have found the problem.
I only ever use Qflash.
Memory bugs? no this board has worked with all ive tried on it, obviously later BIOSes claim to add extra compatibility with DDR4.
Widespread RAM issues?

Might help someone although my audio has never glitched.
