Download RWEverything. Try portable version.
Press CPU MSR registers button, press User list button or F5, type b=0x19C, press Add, press Done.
Post values of MSR with address 0x19C "without load" & "system load".
And I need the text line from CPU-Z TXT Report beginning with MSR 0x000001A2.

BIOS A16 has all needed microcode for all i3/i5/i7 & Xeons (LGA1156).

Does that include the x3480? I'm looking to put one in my optiplex 980 MT. it has Bios A18
