Question Motherboard logo splash does not appear in startup, but boots fine into Windows

I just now changed my GPU from another model of the Asus 3060 ti to the TUF 3060 ti. After plugging in the new GPU, the boot screen does not show the motherboard logo (AORUS). When I press F8/F12 to access bios though, it does let me do that, so that's good. But after the brief black screen, I directly go into Windows Login screen. I can login, game, work, all fine. I am just bothered by the MoBo logo not showing. I checked the BIOS, fast enabled is disabled. It is a Aorus Z490 elite MoBo. INTEL I9 processor, ASUS TUF 3060 ti GPU , Corsair RM850x PSU.
Any thoughts ? Thank you.

Did you use DDU to uninstall your GPU drivers prior to performing the swap(while the system was powered down and disconnected from the wall/display)? What BIOS version are you on for your motherboard at this moment of time?

I checked just now, BIOS version seems to be F4 Aorus motherboard.

I can't seem to access the motherboard's support page on Gigabyte's site. As for DDU, yes you use that to remove your GPU drivers before you remove/swap over to the next card regardless of it being in the same camp(Nvidia) or from another camp(AMD/Intel). You should do the latter now...then manually reinstall your GPU drivers with the latest version in an elevated command, i.e, Right click installer>Run as Administrator.
