Is there a Z170 bios update for i7-7700K?

Hi All,

I have an XPS 8900 with a z170 (v 2.1.10) and Core i5-6400. I was thinking of upgrading the CPU to an  i7-7700K. Is there a Dell bios update for the z170 to handle that?

Thanks.

No.  The system was replaced with the 8920, which is the model that supports the Kaby Lake CPU.  A BIOS update won't enable support - you'd have to replace the mainboard with one from an 8920 system.
