MSI is quite early with this, the ASUS ROG boards haven't received an update yet.

That title! Bring more instability!

Microcode 0x12B is supposed to contain the root cause fix for the CPU killing stability issues. Meaning, past this the problem should be permanently buried... or so they claim.

Just flashed my tomahawk max yesterday, with last 12B update. Hope they finally solved the problem.
