[Precision Tower 3420] microcode update to 0xf8 for Intel Core i5-7600 CPU
I have a Dell Precision Tower 3420 fixed workstation running UEFI BIOS version 2.33.0, from december 2024.
May I ask for a microcode upgrade from current release offered by that BIOS (0xf6) to the latest one (0xf8) in a future firmware release?
root@ws01:/home/co# dmesg | grep microcode
[ 0.598306] microcode: Current revision: 0x000000f8
[ 0.598320] microcode: Updated early from: 0x000000f6
I would prefer the most updated microcode being provided in BIOS instead of being loaded from the operating system.
Thanks!

This is a 2016 model, so it's long end of life -- it will see no further updates.
