Aren't some if not most BIOS chips on mobos soldered directly to the board these days?

all Asus ones are now soldered but the upper end boards from dfi are still on a socket , much better in my opinion

gigabytes have dual bios, which is kind of doing the same thing as this

abits still have replaceable BIOS chips too although they are now phasing over to a DIP type rather than PLCC.

Had one on my old NF7-S and it did allow me to recover a couple of times from bad flashes, was also handy for trialing OC settings.
