You see, there are very different motherboards exist that support Intel Core i7.
Intel Core i7 - is just a name for new CPU from Intel, not more.
But motherboards contain a lot more, most significant in this particular case - disk controller and network card. Which of them will be on that MBs you buy? i have no idea. Are they supported by RedHat/CentOS? i've also no idea.
Most probably you won't have any problems with CPU support but for all other peripherals - you need to check.

If your problem is solved - please, report it!
It's even more important than reporting the problem itself...

I personally run 64 bit Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 on an Intel core i7 920 D0 to host OpenVZ with many OpenVZ containers (both 32 and 64 bit) as well as several VirtuabBox containers and one or two 32 bit schroot containers.
My core i7 is built around an ASUS P6T-Deluxe board with 12Gb RAM and 3Tb storage and the cpu is clocked to 4Ghz.
All works beautifully.
