Lol no this was way back a few years ago, it was an athlon x2 or something like that

I'm going to try to quote all of you guys in one post...

 

The Athlon X2 wasn't even that great in its day. An R5 1400 would be leaps and bounds ahead of that old POS.

That motherboard doesn't have a BIOS update to even support Kaby Lake, as is the case for every H110 board right now because board manufacturers are more concerned about Ryzen and X299 as well as the upcoming X399.

Wow thats an expensive psu!

also "Some Intel H110 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Kaby Lake-S CPUs. Upgrading the BIOS may require a different CPU that is supported by older BIOS revisions."

The H110 platform was new with Skylake. Thought an i5 7400 would fit in the socket just fine and would theoretically work if you updated the BIOS, I can't name a single H110 board that has a BIOS update to support Kaby Lake.

No it's not.

The CX450M is a very good PSU for the money.
