No problems AFAIK, but then the exact CPU model is almost never a problem.

Far more likely to cause problems is the chipset used on
the motherboard where one or more components (ethernet controller, SATA
controller, etc) might not be supported or might have problems. (The same
goes for any additional controllers that might be included on the
motherboard or on add-on cards.) 

Most chipsets work fine, but some of the very newest might not be
supported yet.
