June 28, 2025 - Just letting some people know that 2001 (or whatever bios number the update to 0x12f) is bugged. It gives false WHEA errors in event viewer. I personally get event id 3 which is just information can be ignored even though its worrying getting a WHEA error (if you get full on errors instead of information then please downgrade) Alot of people have said they are having issues with this bios. If you personally have an issue please contact asus support so they can fix it.

I have 2 rigs both same exact spects one is mine the other my daughters. Did both updates to 1820 no issues during update yet Hamed for over 12 hrs straight on mine everything ultra settings XMP enabled in bios. Weird thing is on my daughters rig I figured I would try to enable XMP on my daughters for the small boost in ram speeds and it froze as it was loading windows. Soft powered it down by holding the power button and rebooted. Seemed to POST ok at first but then got zero display and the cpu fan kicked on pretty high so I shut it off killed the kill switch on the psu held the button to discharge any electricity from system then turned back on psu and booted. Posted and brought me into bios safe mode and I disabled XMP and has worked fine since. I am completely clueless why on two complete identical systems in everyway mechanically speaking as well as same bios versions that XMP works perfect on one but locks up the other. Asides from that tho no issues on 1820 mine runs fine so does hers just issues with XMP which id never tried before the 1820 flash.

r/ASUS on Reddit: Intel default settings BIOS 1820 problem (0x12F)
May 29, 2025 -
Hello, I opened similar post on Intel and it was deleted :D I just want t oshare my observatrions and experience regarding new BIOS 1820 which includes new microcode 0x12F for my MB Asus Prime Z790-P WIFI, CPU I have is Intel i5-14600 KF. Per Intel recommendation I used Performance preference Intel default settings. I run few tests and observed that in comparison to Asus advanced OC profile, there is 4-5% lower overall CPU performance and 8-10° C higher avg temps!Peak temps at max load are even 12-15°C higher...So I went back to Asus profile, I have to mention, I am not doing any overclock, everything just on default. Once back on Asus profile, all temps went much better, and overall performance back by 4-5%. Can someone explain this? I am attaching list of changes made by profile switching. I cannot find any reason for temp increase while lower performance.. Intel default settings are highly recommended by Intel itself but looks like it is literally doing the opposite, frying and shortening life of the CPU.

"1. Update the Intel microcode to version 0x12F to further improve system conditions that may contribute to Vmin Shift instability in Intel 13th and 14th Gen systems. Updating this BIOS will simultaneously update the corresponding intel ME to version 16.1.35.2557.

People will still need to undervolt using the Intel profile with the new 0x12F microcode though. If Asus improves/fixes some other stuff as well, I might update to a new BIOS.

Intel Raptor Lake Stability: Microcode 0x12F Fixes Light-Load CPU Instability | Windows Forum
May 9, 2025 - After updating, re-check system stability—ideally, by running a mix of normal, idle, and light multitasking workloads for several days, to monitor for any persisting problems. At the time of writing, major vendors like ASUS, MSI, Gigabyte, and ASRock are in varying stages of validation and rollout for the new BIOS versions; users are encouraged to monitor forums for their specific model and platform.

r/intel on Reddit: No-one is talking about new 0x12F microcode for Raptor Lake ?
May 7, 2025 -
Last week Intel released a new microcode 0x12F related to Vmin Shift issue on Core 13th and 14th Gen : https://community.intel.com/t5/Processors/Intel-Core-13th-and-14th-Gen-Vmin-Shift-Instabilty-Update-New/m-p/1686948.
I didn't find any thread on Reddit talking about it (maybe I didn't search properly ?), which I find surprising.
Anyone tried this new microcode ? Any feedback ?
