I'm building a mini itx PC and just bought a g4560. Will this work with the motherboard right out of the box? I see it's supported on the sight then I see reviews about it needing to be flashed???

Only way to know is to confirm with the actual seller. When the site says "supported" it can mean 1) supported out-of-the-box; or 2) supported IF with an updated BIOS.

If the actual motherboard you will receive was manufactured prior to the release of Kaby Lake, then, you would need a Skylake CPU just to update the mobo's BIOS. If the actual motherboard you will receive was manufactured after the release of Kaby Lake, then, there is a *chance* (not yet certain), that its BIOS *may* (or may not) be updated for Kaby Lake CPUs already.

To eliminate this issues or hassles, just get a B250M ITX motherboard.
