Either way, avoid onboard RealTek ethernet as it's not currently
supported
well by Debian. One might be able to make it work, but the process
requires
some serious hoop jumping.
Really? RealTek chips are as common as flies on horse poop, and works
perfectly for me.

Hi, I have an Asus "sabertooth" 55i (socket LGA1156) with the same
Realtek lan chip (rev03 here), no problem.
The motherboard is overpriced due to it's marketing hype regarding
"military" grade components and "Ceramix" coated heatsinks , but
otherwise it's working great, and very cool too with an Intel Core i7.
Layout is good for my needs, ample space for large video card without
blocking any sata port. Bundle is limited to bare minimum (esata/usb
bracket and a few cables). Used for video processing mainly, occasional
kernel compilations, virtualbox vm and the occasional game.Works with
Squeeze amd64 with stock kernel (minor sound glitches with on-board
chip) and currently 2.6.33.2 (100% functional), suspend works too.
