I'm planning on buying MSI H110M PRO-VD and a Pentium G4560 Kaby Lake CPU, but to actually be able to use the kaby lake Mod edit: keep it clean pleaseI need a bios update, so could I put the update on my Usb drive and flast it on my motherboard?

Probably not, most MB's require a working CPU that it knows, and then can flash. IE, a skylake CPU would work. Now in a few months once old stock is sold out, all new MB's will come with a working BIOS that supports Kaby Lake out of the box, but for now you usually need a CPU that works in it in order to flash it. It's a bad paradox. lol.
