The G4560 is a Kaby Lake processor. It is technically compatible with either of those motherboards you listed. The issue lies with the Gigabyte board as it may require a BIOS update in order to support the processor and, in order to do that, you would need a Skylake chip in order to boot the system to accomplish the BIOS update.

The safest route is to go with the B250 board as you are guaranteed compatibility with the G4560 out of the box.
