Are there any motherboard supporting the KabyLake CPU?

Is there any motherboard that will support the new 7th generation Intel KabyLake processor?

The 6th generation Skylake and 7th generation KabyLake, both use LGA 1151 socket so it is likely that 6th generation motherboards will support KabyLake processors with a BIOS update!

Great, will most motherboards receive that update?

BIOS is what matters.. Standards are same, for lower end cpu like i7700K you need LGA1151 mobo. Intel has announced that i77950x will be having LGA 2011-3 which is same as old generation skylake..

So fingers crossed.
Ur motherboard may support it, if u are rocking a skylake

Oh okay got it!

Skylake mobos support kabylake,So getting a Z170 mobo will be a good upgrade path as u can use both sky and kaby cpu's
