Looking to build a PC with a mixture of used and new parts. I will probably be getting a i5 6600 or 6500 because I can get them at a considerable lower price than the 7th gen i5s.

At my local tech store there are a few h270 boards that are open box and cheap. My question is will a 6th generation i5 work on a h270 board without any BIOs updates (or downgrade). I know in order to use a 7th gen intel CPU on a 100 series board, a BIO updates is needed. Is the opposite needed for a 6th gen intel CPU on a 200 series board?
