If your definition of "most" excludes all CPUs from 2017 onward and all before 2015 as well, then yes, it's compatible with most.
LGA1151 and LGA1151-2 are not compatible so you're looking for 6th (6000) and 7th gen (7000) (if you updated the BIOS). No other CPUs will work.

You guys are right, but sadly its what I have to deal with. I'm not buying a whole new desktop for my parents.
