i mean i know it has to be enabled during the short time at boot in order to be able to boot the pc ..cpus starting at nehalem require this , but afterwards its no issue

is someone able to transfer the modules and changes into the bios of the asus Rampage III Black Edition.
It is the same hardware just in black color and with a pcie wificard onboard. 

the original bios can be found here:
Bios 602
I would use this:

CPU Microcode Updated to latest [106A4 Revision 13 (2015-06-30), 106A5 Revision 1D (2018-05-11), 206C2 Revision 1F (2018-05-08), 206C0 Revision 1C (2009-12-14)].
There is a modded bios available with the mirco code canb be found here

INTEL ICH10R SATA RAID Controller: v13.5.0.2164 (SSD TRIM support in AHCI and RAID modes)
Marvell 91xx SATA 6G Controller - Bios : v1.0.0.1038*
Marvell 91xx SATA 6G Controller - Firmware: v2.1.0.1413
Marvell 91xx SATA 6G Controller - Bootloader: v1.0.1.0002b*
JMicron JMB36X Controller: v1.08.01 (AHCI Patched)
INTEL 82567V-2 Gigabit Network: [b]v1.5.85[/b]
SLIC 2.1: ASUS (SSV3/MMtool method)

And is it possible to change the bios version to maybe 0700 ?

Thanks

The only change is 206C0 microcode is updated to latest (Rev 1C dated 2009-12-14).
This microcode handles all non-production (not OEM nor Retail) CPU's for our mainboard.  'ES' Engineering Samples and the like.
This microcode will not block Spectre/Meltdown for those CPU's as it is too old, but it should make them more reliable.

Also added S23o:
This version has pre Meltdown/Specter microcode releases:
206c0 Rev 1C
206c2 Rev 1C
106a5 Rev 1B


106a5 effects these CPUs: 
Xeon Models: E5502, E5503, E5504, E5506, E5507, E5520, E5530, E5540, L5506, L5508, L5518, L5520, L5530, W5580, W5590, X5550, X5560, X5570
Core Models: i7-920, i7-930, i7-940, i7-950, i7-960, i7-965, i7-975 

206c2 effects these CPUs:
Xeon Models: E5603, E5606, E5607, E5620, E5630, E5640, E5645, E5649, L5609, L5618, L5630, L5638, L5640, W3670, W3680, W3690, X5647, X5650, X5660, X5667, X5670, X5672, X5675, X5677, X5680, X5687, X5690
Core Models: i7-990X, i7-980X

S23o will allow your CPU to run at it's full potential, but will leave it susceptible to Meltdown & Spectre.  

Both releases support ANY of the above listed processor models.  If you run some other processor it is supported by one of the other microcodes and was never patched for Meltdown/Spectre.

I see no reason to rearchive to rar or 7z just so internal info displays properly.  Either application will decompress properly, regardless of the missing size displayed.
