BIOS image for an X79-6M desktop motherboard, packed as a RAR archive of 3.42 MB and labelled for an 8MB flash chip. The name gives no brand or board revision, so confirm the model printed on the PCB before use. X79 boards take LGA2011 processors, and generic X79 boards circulate under several vendor names, so firmware from one vendor may not suit another. Read and save the original SPI chip contents with a programmer such as a CH341A first. Then check that the extracted image is exactly 8 MB before writing it.

Compressed archive — the usual wrapper for a schematic + boardview pair or a BIOS + EC set.
Back up your own chip before writing any dump, and match the full board number and revision. Flashing guide →
