Updating GA-H110M-S2H to be used with Kabylake?
« on: February 12, 2017, 12:00:47 am »
Hi, I want to buy this board but I don't have a Skylake processor to update the BIOS to a BIOS version that supports my Kabylake processor, is there a way I can do this without a supported CPU? I assume there isn't unfortunately.

Chances are extremely slim that you can update the BIOS without a skylake CPU.  My recommendation is purchase a board that supports your new CPU instead of trying to buy previous gen chipset released in Q3 '15.  Up to you of course.
