[BillyQuanza]

Hello
I have a Asus M32CD_A_F_K20CD_K31CD and i cant find any site with the cpu support list can someone help.
i have I3 6098P with gtx 1060 and i want to change to a i7 6700k or a i5 6600

update the BIOS to the latest version, after this you should be able to replace the CPU up to the 7th gen (kabylake) Intel CPUs. e.g I7 7700k, i5 7600,... including the 6th gen CPUs

but couldn´t find proof online, only the 6th gen will work for sure:

Agree with helpstar. Looks like it's an H110 chipset, suitable for 6th/7th Gen. Update the bios and it should be fine to take a higher CPU.

I wouldn't stick an i5 6600 in as a replacement though. It's almost a sideways step from what you have. Your current CPU is 2c/4t 3.6ghz, and an I5 6600 is 4c/4t 3.3base/3.9 boost. Much the same results. An I7 6700/7700 would fit well. I wouldn't bother with a K CPU like 7700k as you will not be able to OC it with the H110 and the 6700/7700 vanilla are just as good if you can't/won't OC.
