[REQUEST] ASUS P9D-MV Broadwell microcode
#1
Hi all,
I have an Asus P9D-MV motherboard with a C222 chipset, but with only microcode for Haswell (even C222 should support Broadwell):
   

I would like to upgrade the Haswell CPU (Core i3-4370T) to a Broadwell CPU (e.g. Xeon E3-1285 v4). Would it be possible to add the Broadwell microcode (CPUID 0306D4)?

The original Bios can be downloaded here.

Thank you.

Post a screenshot of Mainboard tab of CPU-Z.

I am running FreeBSD on this home server, therefore I have used CPU-X from a Ubuntu Live USB stick:
   

I have also added the output of dmidecode for more information.

There is no way to add support of Broadwell in this case.
Adding microcode will not add support for new CPU.
BTW: Xeon E3-1285 v4 has CPUID=0x40671

Thank you very much for the answer. I wrongly looked up the CPUID for mobile Broadwell CPUs. Do I understand correctly that Broadwell support with C220 series chipsets requires not only the correct microcode but a lot of modifications in the BIOS?

You don't need a modified BIOS, but a new one.
