[Guide] CoffeeLake CPUs on Skylake and KabyLake mainboards

I have a Gigabyte GA-H110M-S2H-GSM and I was able to do the BIOS modification for an i3-8100 thanks to the instructions posted here.
The question now is that I got an Xeon E3-1270v5 (LGA1151) and it is not compatible with the H110 chipset, someone here gets the microcode of this processor to add in the BIOS of my board to see if it works the same as it was made for i3 8100 ?

see:
Anyone is researching about using Xeon E3 1200v5/v6 (Skylake/Kaby Lake) and Xeon W (Skylake-E) with Desktop Chipsets?

looks like 1200v5 series also has 506e3 cpuid, same as consumer skylake. problem comes down to me firmware it would seem.
