#1 | 8 Core Impact Bios datum

Tue Dec 25, 2018 9:29 pm

Hello, I am interested in making an 8 core capable bios for the Maximus VIII Impact. I believe there is already a 6-core bios available:
https://community.hwbot.org/topic/141987...t&comment=50772
A user says this bios doesn't work with his 9900k. How would I implement 8-core support? Also, how could I PREVENT Sceptre/Meltdown fixes (slightly lower benchmarking performance)?
Thank you for any information. I am new to this forum.
