Someone is asking about a friend who got an i5 7th generation processor in an Asus Prime H310M-R motherboard, even though the board only supports 8th and 9th generation chips. They want to know if others have similar setups and how it was possible.

It seems the processor isn't an Intel 7th generation chip.

No, there’s no typo. Your friend’s system has a 7th generation CPU, and the motherboard supports both 7th and 8th generation models. The confusion might come from different generations being mentioned.

H310 doesn't accommodate kaby lake. It seems unlikely to be.

If it functions, then the issue lies elsewhere.

Looking for others with the same configuration and wanting to see their approach.
