it tells you at the bottom just above the price graph, it's probably to do with something like Skylake board or M.2 slot sharing bandwidth with another lane,

it will tell you that there is a compatibility issue if you pick a H110, H170, B150, or Z170 board because those are all 100 series (skylake) motherboards, and therefore need a BIOS update to work with a 7th gen kabylake CPU.
