G4600 and Gigabyte H110M-H DDR4 together?

[Dater]

I'm putting this pretty straight forward: I have that MoBo, and a Pentium G4600. Gigabyte's got this thing called Q Flash (to update the BIOS). 

Ive heard that you can do the flash (update), only if the motherboard's got this white USB port that's made specially for updating (when talking about Q Flash).

I don't have money to buy another CPU, and getting the past gen Pentium is not an option.

How can I update the BIOS without another CPU.

Pls just answer how and don't fall into other topics

Asrock does this, although I'm not sure if Gigabyte does. They will ship a free updated BIOS chip for the motherboard of your choice, which you can replace with a pair of tweezers. Contact Gigabyte or dig around their website for info.

Look ahmm in my country there is only Amazon aaand Amazon, that's not an option. I can't pay for anything else (no even a single cent), I just want to know how to do it by myself

Take it to a local pc shop and ask them to update for you?

you meant to say that you got that motherboard already without updated bios so your G4600 is not supported by the motherboard? if its the case then you must need a skylake processor to update the bios. you can do it yourself if you have skylake processor. I'm not familiar with white port Q-flash+ system. but you can check this video which might be helpful in your case.

That's what gets me really confused, in the first 'way'. It says, Start the MoBo in the Q-flash mode, but he doesn't specify if you need to have the CPU installed, the most obvious thing is that indeed the CPU is. But, is it a Skylake CPU or a Kaby lake one... ohhh man I don't know if I'm expressing myself correctly

okay let me make it clear for you. gigabyte H110 motherboard, not all come with updated bios hence needs to update latest bios to support kabylake processor. if your motherboard came with updated bios then you are good to go means you can just install G4600 & you should be fine. But if you notice your processor is not supported that indicates you need a skylake processor to update the Bios
