Bios upgrade for CPU compatibility(G4560)

Go to solution Solved by GrayTech,

Should work but make sure to check wether the H110 motherboard you want to use supports the G4560 wven with a BIOS update or not. But I think almost all H110 boards do. And if your lucky the H110 board supports the G4560 without a BIOS update.

I've never built a computer before, so I'm not sure if I'll even need to do this.
I'm trying to build a super budget computer, since I've never built my own before (I'm reusing RAM, HDD, PSU, and GPU from old one), but on PCPartPicker it mentions that I might need to update the bios of an H110M for support of a G4560.

Now my question is this:
I have a 7700K in my current computer, and am wondering if I could use that to update the bios of the H110M. If so, would I be able to just remove it from my computer, plop it into the H110, update that bios, and then put it back into my main computer as if nothing ever happened?
