I'm also on Z77 and Z68, both Fatal1ty. I saw that Intel didn't release a microcode update for Sandy/Ivy, that means manufacturers can't do anything to update the motherboards. Perhaps if we send a lot of mails to Intel, to claim for updated microcode...

I don't believe that intel will give the microcode for Sandy- or Ivy Bridge CPU's to ASrock.
I don't believe either that ASrock will solve the Problmens that Intel is responsible for.
They build unsafe CPU's and give a sh** on their customers.

I think the only answer customers can give is to buy no more intel cpu's in the future.
With the Ryzen cpu's there is something we can use for Gaming.

https://newsroom.intel.com/news-releases/security-first-pledge/

"By Jan. 15, we will have issued updates for at least 90 percent of Intel CPUs introduced in the past five years, with updates for the remainder of these CPUs available by the end of January. We will then focus on issuing updates for older products as prioritized by our customers."

This says that Intel will produce updates for older systems but does not specify which ones.

haswell is less than 5 years old, and without it it would not be more then 90%. also thay mention remainder of cpus.

also for linux there is microcode avaible and covers pretty much everything

i really expect intel to release microcode update even for old q2c and motherboard manufacturers to update their bios.

Hi!

will there be a new BIOS for my Fatal1ty X99X Killer Board?

The new microcode has been rolled out on the  01/08/2018 by Intel as well:

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/27431/Linux-Processor-Microcode-Data-File?v=t


Bye the way, do I have to update the Intel ME for X99? Does Asrock has any update tool for this out there?

regards

Yes, that's unusual and not in a good way. The other manufactures usually have set up a dedicated website for Meltdown, Spectre, listing all the affected products and more information and links to the patches. ASRock releases patches 'on the dl'

On the upside, my B250-HDV got the firmware update today and is now fully patched Smile
