@ acid96

Good offer. :)

We have already figured out that this microcode is for Kabylake S1151 and S2066.
This microcode will be added in the next release of UBU.

does this fix the hyper threading or just turn it off?

It is necessary to check the new microcode 5E for Kabylake (fix bug HT). But I'm confused by Platform ID 2A, before this ID was 22.

In Little Endian from 0-7:

22 = 00100010
2A = 00101010

So 22 supports platforms 1 and 5 whereas 2A supports platforms 1, 3 and 5. Thus, 2A succeeds 22. The new Platform 3 should be for LGA2066 KBL-X.

You can use MC Extractor to view Platform details at -info parameter:

@ f3bandit:

Fix, obviously.

Attention! Check at your own peril and risk.
Test update for UBU v1.69
Extract content to the UBU folder. This will add a new Microcode 5E for Kabylake CPUID 0906E9.
If you do not have the opportunity to restore BIOS, do not experiment.
Please, write down the results of a successful update of this microcode.

I have i7 7700k on Asus Z170 Deluxe; I can test... Anyway, will I be able to restore old bios using USB flashback in case of brick, right?

That explains why "Kaby Lake-X" is marked as "not affected" by the hyper-threading bug in Intel's docs: due to the platform mask/platform id bits in the microcode, the minimum microcode version that will work for those chips already has the fix...

If you believe the information from Intel, the evaporated microcodes were released in April.
Then it turns out that:
- for Skylake - cpu000506E3_plat36_ver000000BA_date09-04-2017.bin
- for Kabylake - cpu000906E9_plat2A_ver0000005E_date06-04-2017.bin

@ ALL
HT. Bug fix.

@ SoniX: Is the updated CPU microcode for Skylake/Kabylake that pertains to the recently discovered hyperthreading error been included in UBU v1.69.4?
Thanks.

That just means the version isn't for your board. I havew a Z97X that can only update to 14.8.2.2397. I imagine your's will only update to 14.8.2.2397 as well.

are you sure it changed it to 15.7.0.2925. Cause if it Gave you the error it most likely didn't change it. try re-running ubu on the same bios file. and see if it changed it.
