If you’re trying to upgrade your computer’s processor and want to use an i7-7700, your best bet is to check if your motherboard supports it. Since the i7-7700 is a Kaby Lake chip, it requires a BIOS update to work with your motherboard. However, not all motherboards receive updates for new processors, especially older models.
In this case, your H110 motherboard might not have a BIOS update available to support the i7-7700. To find out, visit the manufacturer’s website and look for your specific motherboard model. Check the support or downloads section for BIOS updates, and see if the i7-7700 or other Kaby Lake processors are listed.
If there’s no update supporting the i7-7700, upgrading to that CPU won’t be possible with your current motherboard. You might consider upgrading to a newer motherboard that is compatible with Kaby Lake processors or other more recent CPUs.
Always remember, before attempting to update the BIOS or upgrade your CPU, back up your important data and read all instructions carefully. If you’re unsure how to proceed or uncomfortable doing these updates yourself, it might be best to get help from a professional or a trusted technician.
