All motherboards have a version of the firmware/BIOS on my board one of them is the F11 if I want to use a 9900k in that motherboard it must be running that version or higher. If I want to run any other i9 chip it must have the F12 version of the firmware/BIOS. These are used for the support of the hardware installed on the boards, some of the time the version upgrades are for new CPUs that have been produced after the board was made or improvement with ram compatibility, security issues. Without support for your chip you intend to install any motherboard will be useless to you, you must make certain it has the support.

You need version 1005 of the firmware/BIOS on the board for a i9-9900k in it.

The board you originally post about if you can get it, the Gigabyte z390 UD with the add in card installed will do it. Are couple I have seen showing it can be done just be certain when buying you have done the research to make sure it will work with macOS and has the proper version of the firmware/BIOS on it to support your chip or you waste the time and effort plus more money getting it updated if needing to buy second chip to flash firmware/BIOS. With your last post yes it is the chip you have so if the board you buy has the 1005 version installed there will be no problems at all in it working with it.

I knew there were some of them you could do it on I have no idea if that board is one of them, a reading of the motherboard manual in those support pages would tell you for certain.
