ASRock H110M-HDV Compatibility

[Jackwryan]

Hey,
I just purchased a ASRock H110M-HDV Motherboard and an Intel i5-7600K CPU, and apparently I need to update the Bios in order to run it. Im not sure how to do this or if I need to, so any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

You cant unless you buy or borrow a Skylake, and update it first

Or take it to a shop

You may need to update it, you may not if the motherboard was made after the bios update. If you find it doesn't work, it's likely the mobo needs a bios update which can only be done using a Skylake chip.

Cheers for the quick response,
how would I find out whether or not the motherboard was made after the bios update and what version I would need to update it to?

H1110, Z170, and B150 mobos need a BIOS update for a Kaby Lake

You need BIOS 7.10 to support that CPU

1151 Core i5 i5-7600K(B0) Kaby Lake 3.8GHz BCLK 100MHz 6MB 91W P7.10

There maybe a sticker on the mobo. If the numbers on it are under 7.10 then it needs a BIOS update

But the only way you can do it, is above
