i hate it when people tell others that they require a bios update to run a kabylake CPU on a H110 board. H110 motherboards manufactured after their kabylake supported BIOSes have been released would have been updated to these newer BIOSes and run kabylake CPUs out of the box without needing an update.

its been quite a few months since the BIOSes has been released, most of the h110 boards now should be already updated. you can try asking the seller or website support if the bios supports kabylake or for the manufacture date.
