I currently have a I5 6400 intel processor with a gigabyte z10x gaming mother board is the I5 8600 compatible with the board?

I think you mean Z170X, and if so, no, 8th gen intel and up only work with 300 series motherboards.

None of the motherboards in the world that work with a 6400 will support an 8600. You'll need a new motherboard.
