Update BIOS with no cpu

[Hudson Hamilton]

I just purchased a gigabyte H110M-A and an Intel Pentium G4600 and the H110-A is only compatible with 6th gen processors, so I need to update my BIOS, which I do not have a CPU for. Is there any way to update my BIOS without a CPU?

You will need a Skylake CPU to update

No. You will need to take the motherboard to a PC shop and pay them to update the BIOS or you will need to purchase/borrow a sky lake processor so you can do it yourself.

Did you try booting with your G4600? Kaby Lake BIOSs have been out for a while, I'm a little surprised a recently purchased H110 mobo didn't come loaded with the necessary BIOS.
