ASUS launches beta BIOS with microcode 0X12B for Raptor Lake



Intel’s 0x12B microcode update appears to be the ultimate solution to the stability and degradation issue of the 13th and 14th generation Intel Core processors “Raptor Lake and Raptor Lake Refresh.”

Let us remember that MSI and Gigabyte have already released final versions of their BIOS with this correction, but it seems that ASUS wants to be somewhat more cautious and has published a updating your BIOS in beta version for their motherboards with Intel 600 and 700 series chipsets for these processors.

In addition to include microcode 0x12B which should solve the problem of high voltage requests during sleep or low activity phases by the processors, ASUS has also disabled it in the BIOS options the section to disable Intel C1E technology to try to reduce stress on the processor and maintain stability. The C1E feature is a built-in technology to allow the processor to enter sleep states automatically and is recommended to be left enabled.
