I can't honestly say. I talked to an expert about this yesterday and
pointed out that early sandybridge required the microcode update to work at
all, later ones did not.

It's quite likely that if you have a new stepping of an end of life chipset
you'll be fine. It's hard to say.

For my machines, I always enable microcode upgrades because debugging
issues with bad microcode is really not fun at all.
