Hi, I'm looking to make a build for my friend, I was originally going to get him a i5-6600 but then the new generation of intel cpus came out, so im going to get him a i5-7600 instead. i put the cpu in my pc part picker and it came up with "Some Intel H170 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Kaby Lake-S CPUs."

What does that mean? And by the way I cant get the i5-6600 even if I wanted to because my local pc shop just doesn't sell them anymore...
So what im asking is can i just put the cpu in the motherboard and it'll be all fine? or do i have to update the bios (i dont even know how to do that)

Here's the list: https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/k3pByf

Here's the shop im buying it from: https://www.ple.com.au/

Thanks guys

Flamevein, Hopefully you can help me out. I am doing a similar build with my GA-H170N-WIFI,. upgrading it from an I-6500 to a I5-7600. Was your build successful and stable? What motherboard did you use? And finally, did you use the F20 or F21 Bios. Thank you.
