Hi, I bought the motherboard ASUS Z170-A and the Intel I7 7700K to build my PC, when I turn on it doesnt show anything on the screen, but the fans and lights are working, Can you help me pls :(

Can I update the BIOS without connecting the Intel I7?

Thanks.

Yeah, all the Z170 boards don't support the 7th gen CPU's until you update the BIOS. And you'll need a Skylake CPU to do that. SOME boards do have a special way to update the BIOS without having to get into the BIOS, but it carries significant risks. I never had any issue updating any BIOS until I tried this special function on a MSI board a couple of weeks ago and it bricked the board.
