You might be best picking a distro and then looking at the support specifically for that. The distros that move quicker with the times are probably more suitable, but it's always possible to get stuff like debian stable running on cutting edge hardware, with some effort with kernel and userland. It'll be typical stuff like wifi and gpu support but, at least in my experience, they can generally be made to work. I'm sure you'd be fine with Arch or latest Ubuntu etc.
