About two years ago you assembled your PC using an MSI Z370 PC PRO and an Intel i3 8100. Now you're considering switching to an Intel i5 9600K. It seems possible, as the upgrade might only require a BIOS update. You're unsure if it's fully supported, but it appears feasible. Someone could confirm whether your motherboard supports that change.

It works fine, as demonstrated in the link provided: https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/...upport-cpu. Simply update the BIOS and install the new CPU.
