I got an ASUS P5Q (P45 chipset) a couple of weeks ago.  A couple of
minor issues:
* The Marvell IDE controller is broken in 2.6.25 and 2.6.26.
* Make sure the sata controller is running in AHCI mode
* The onboard Atheros NIC is not supported in the kernel.  I have to
build the driver seperately (it's actually on the driver disk)

The intel HD audio works great.
