MSI's really quick on these AGESA updates. Nice to see updates though even if it's not always informative on what's in these.
Hmm so 1.0.8.0 and on had some of the new CPU models supported. Guessing this improves and eventually finalizes that support in time for Zen3 plus what else is in the code here either in general or for these new processor models.

EDIT: Ah and these do come with some more informative release notes too. Nice!

And yep future AM4 socket processors and as almost always general memory compatibility tweaks.
Other two might be more MSI motherboard specific though AMD's tweaking a number of things in their AGESA code bits too for how some of this stuff works.

I'm really happy with my X570 Unify, I hear this bios makes the mouse a lot smoother too.
