Red Hat seems to have the best support for hard ware out of all the distros so I would say Red Hat. :)

i've found that most of the distro's these days will support most hardware.....

i'm currently running some of the latest hardware and have had no problems installing any distro that i've wanted to in the past few months. those distro's include:

Mandrake 9
Redhat 8 (which i personally did not like)
Libranet 2.0
Slackware 8.1

so pretty much you should be able to install any distro you want on that mobo.
