Yes, you can use an i7 6700K on a H-series motherboard. It’s not restricted to Z-series only. The CPU is compatible as long as the motherboard supports the necessary features and overclocking capabilities. Just check the specific model of your H-series board to confirm compatibility.

It shouldn't create any issues, though you won't be able to push it beyond its limits.

There are no issues, I have no idea where you found it—it seems clearly incorrect.

I'm guessing that whoever you heard this from was talking about using a 6700K in a very cheap H110 board. That could cause issues if the VRMs (voltage regulation modules) on the board are not sufficient for the 6700K to run at full speed due to overheating. It's not necessarily a "stability" issue, but it could cause you to lose performance and could, over time, damage the board. What specific motherboard(s) are you considering pairing the 6700K with?
