Combatible?

MSI Computer H110M ECO Motherboard

Intel i3 7100 CPU

I can't tell if these two are compatible or not. What's messing me up is the CPU Page say 

Quote

• Compatible with Intel 200/1001 Series Chipset Motherboards

But I can't find the motherboard's Chipset. The best I can get is H110M. Is this just the brand name?

Go for this motherboard instead (https://www.amazon.com/MSI-micro-ATX-Motherboard-B250M-PRO-VD/dp/B01N9OZI64/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1487732250&sr=1-1&keywords=b250) it has official certification for kabylake and the capacity for the h110m mobo was "uATX" and I have no idea what that is. 

 

Some motherboards from skylake might work with kabylake but those require BIOS updates and I think those are only for Z170 boards.

Motherboard chipset is H110

Motherboard socket is 1151

 

Brand name is MSI

Model name is H110M Eco

 

You need BIOS update for to use it. Get an i3 6100 instead. BIOS update need a Skylake CPU (6th gen like i3 6100, i5 6500,...)

Thanks for the suggestion. So this and the CPU should cooperate w/o any BIOS updates or anything of the sort?

the motherboard I suggested, yeah there shouldn't be any issue at all, unless it's DOA of course, but it is a kabylake certified motherboard from being B250 and your CPU is kabylake, so it's all good.
