MSI even claims all of its LGA 1700 motherboards will get updated before month end
Two of Intel's biggest motherboard partners say their users will start receiving new BIOS updates containing the crucial microcode patch for Raptor Lake CPUs next week.for 13th and 14th Gen Raptor Lake CPUs over the course of August. The updated CPU microcode, which should be finalized in the coming days, is supposed to stop Intel's desktop CPUs from frying themselves and causing permanent damage that ranges from crashing at normal clock speeds to complete failure.
Although microcode updates are developed by Intel, they have to be distributed via motherboard BIOSes developed by individual motherboard vendors, including DIY brands like ASUS and MSI, and also OEMs. When it comes to microcode patches, Intel can't guarantee when users will receive it or if all users will even get it at all, since it is up to individual motherboard makers to issue new BIOS versions.
