The MSI Z170 Krait Gaming does not support the 9900k CPU, it only supports up to a i7 7700, you will need a newer model LGA1151 socket motherboard to use it. That CPU can only be used with a Z370 board that has had the bios updated, or a Z390 board. Socket is the same but implementation, pinout and chipset are different.

You will need a motherboard with LGA1151 socket and 300 series chipset. Best Buy does carry motherboards that are compatible with the Intel Core i7-9700K processor which you can check out here https://www.bestbuy.com/site/computer-cards-components/motherboards/abcat0507008.c?id=abcat0507008&qp=processorsocketsv_facet%3DProcessor%20Socket~Socket%20LGA%201151 Thank you for choosing Intel.
