So just to be clear, my computer knowldge is very minimal. So please try to keep answers simple :)

I have built a gaming pc in the past and thouhhht to help out a friend with one for him. We chose a $400 one we saw on YouTube. Anyways to the question, we got the 7th gen intel pentium CPU with the 6th gen MSI H110 VD- Plus mobo.

I didn't find out until hours of research that I would need a 6th gen CPU in order to run and bios flash the mobo to run the pentium CPU.

So, could someone help direct me, or even link the exact CPU we would need for this? I would really appreciate it. Please keep in mind that we were trying to do a budget build so the chespest one to get the job done is good enough for me.

Thanks!
