@ users with an Intel 8-Series Chipset mainboard:
The user btester has posted at German WinLite Forum the newest MicroCode module for Haswell CPUs.
Details:
MicroCode ID: 0326C310
CPU ID: 06C3
Revision: 10
Dated: 06/20/2013

Thanks, working fine for me.
Do we need this ? Any advantages?
Can’t find any additional information on this.
You will not really need an update of the CPU microcode. Furthermore users with a Haswell CPU can expect wthin the next months some BIOS updates offered by the mainboard manufacturer and I am pretty sure, that the CPU microcode will be updated as well.
The question regarding the advantages of a CPU microcode update may be answered by someone else (Pacman?).

I didn’t see the question Before, what i have read is that it has an affect on computation and memory related functions.
EDIT: There is also a newer revision 12, that i have attached, got it at Tweaktown.
Note: It is only for Haswell, CPU ID: 06C3

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn’t microcode ONLY good when you are upgrading to a CPU your current BIOS doesn’t support? I think there’s no other “benefit” to it.
What i have read about it is that not all instruction sets are hardwired, most of them are though for performance reasons, but new MC can be used to "finetune" some ways the CPU handles various tasks.
I have not studied the subject much, but this explanation, that i got from another forum sounds reasonable to me.
Guys,
What is command for microdecode…?

For Ivy - 19 and Sandy - 29, new until it was?
I have not seen any newer for Sandy/Ivy bridge.
Did anybody try the microcode update function in UBU on an Asus Maximus VI Formula bios? I successfully updated Intel RST and all LAN modules, but left the microcode untouched because of what Fernando wrote >HERE<…
Hey Fernando,
I know this isn’t the place to do it but since you were here, I thought I’d ask…
I just got the CPU Microcode for all Intel Systems (or almost all of them), decompressed into a BIN fiile so it can be copy and pasted into a bios OR added via mmtool, etc… Anyway, would you like those files? It’s both databases (2014 & 2015) CPU Microcode. If you’re interested, I’ll put it on my mega drive for you and you can put on site. It would be very useful for many, I’m sure!
And I can give you instructions, if you don’t already have, on how to figure out what CPU microcode to use, etc… (assuming you don’t already havve, and i’m sure you probably do)
Thanks,
Swick
PS. I have the 1 file that is a database of ALL the microcode, and then that file has been extracted and each CPU has a BIN file with it’s newest microcode. Would that be of any use to you?
@swick1981 :
Thank you for the idea to upload a file, which contains the latest/best CPU Microcode modules for all Intel systems.
Since I am neither an expert regarding the CPU Microcodes nor offering the related modules myself, I propose to offer the link within this thread for the public.
By the way: I have moved your last post into this better matching thread.
Hey Fernando,
Since you have been so amazing to me and helped me out when no one else would, or could, I really want to repay you. As such, I have the ABSOLUTE LATEST version of CPU MICROCODES availabl. I’ll have them in 2 forms. One form is in 1 file, and it has everything in it. Though that’s mainly for people with LINUX, and I haven’t used it in a very long time, so I can provide the file for them but they’ll need to figure out what to do once they have that dbase file.
However, I have been able to pull every CPU microcode out of the linux database. And so, I can also give some instructions on how to update the microcode if you want. If so, let me know and I’ll write something up for you this week. Does your site have the ability to store all the CPU microcodes (it’s about 50 files but it’s under 2mb. Let me know how to proceed, as I’m HAPPY to help in any small way that I can!
Thanks,
Swick
