Hey guys, I'm building a PC for my sister and I am looking for a cheap Micro-ATX motherboard for my i5-7600k. She only wants to play the Sims and I know this is probably overkill but I've got it laying around so I figure someone might as well get some use out of it. I'd like to have enough PCI-E lanes to run a GTX 960 and a wireless card, or have wifi built into the motherboard. On Craigslist I found an H110m Pro-VD from MSI for $40 but I can't find any definite evidence as to whether a bios update would enable support for the 7600k. Marketing info only says it supports up to 6th gen. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
