Hi:

 

Below is the link to the product specs for your PC.

But, do you know if you can use cpu´s with socket 1151 v2 on this motherboard? Such as intel core i3 9100F.

No.

 

I just checked the BIOS updates for your PC including the revision history and no support is added for new processors.

 

You can only install the processors listed on that link I posted the other day.

Ill also add, just to back up what Paul has already said.

LGA-1151 and LGA-1151 V2 is not cross compatible. You cannot take an i9 CPU and make it work in an 1151 V1, even though the pin-outs look the same. There is no bios update that can fix that.  Its a difference in chipset's.
