Meltdown and Spectre variants

   Intel is still releasing New Microcodes to newer variants, and possible reducing performance hits. but I have noticed Asrock has not been keeping up with this newer Microcodes. atlest not for x170 series?

Has asrock gave up up keeping Microcodes update for all cpu intel releases update too? I mean this was one the worse security issues in cpu in history.

Even if MS is releasing the codes thew WU maybe some of want those codes embedded in to the bios and dont want the hassle of having to make custom bios with it in it, some other means of getting it in there.

I dont get why Manufacturers cant just release of exe file that updates bios ( which could be last bios ever made for a board) that just update the microcode in the bios.

That all aside, has asrock gave up on keep bios up to date with microcodes for this?
