Hey I'm looking at buying a new pc and i was wondering if the MSI Z87M motherboard would work with the Intel core i5 4690k right out of the box, or if I would have to get the MSI Z97M?

That's a crapshoot - you don't know if you'll get a motherboard with an outdated BIOS or not.

It would be better to go with a Z97 motherboard right from the start.
