Is there any official statement to see what cpus are affected by those attacks?

I'm interested more in Intel pentium g3248, g4560, Q6600 are those affected by both meltdown and spectre?

Is there any intel cpu not affected at all by those 2 attacks?

I repeat: Intel committed to delivering the microcode and BIOS updates by the end of the month, no sooner. Any questions before then are premature.

Do you know this statement is true for all the Intel made Desktop Boards which have reached the End of Interactive Support i.e. DZ77RE-75K etc.

and have not seen any BIOS updates in years?

Intel has promised microcode updates for all affected processors by the end of the month. It is then up to the board manufacturer to deliver BIOS support for their boards. In the case of the Intel Desktop Board products affected, Intel will have to deliver the BIOS updates obviously.

Yes, Intel, in all their wisdom, decided not to host these BIOS files any longer. Luckily, I have a copy squirrelled away in my archive. See attached.

Hope this helps,

Thank you for your support. 
But I have a question.
Can I find a setup file version with the .exe extension?
Or do you have it?
This file has the extension ".bio" and I don't know how to install it.

That's a BIOS update file. For installation, see the instructions I provided above (entry dated 04-12-2018).
