Well the I7 is better but really the I5 has close to 99% of its gaming performance.

I would say go for the 4790 but maybe make it a k proccesor so you wont have to worry about it if it gets slower you can just overclock and you wont haev to upgrrade you mobo until the next series of cpus come out.

Not much difference, H97 just has PCI-E M.2 Support over H87. I7 4790 being a little faster than the I5. Both will do what you want but the I7 will do it a little better.
