asus said the xeon 55xx series aren't meant for oc'ing so limited support. But Xeon W3520/3540/3570 have full support from 0007 and 0001 bioses. Throttling haven't noticed but then i've mainly tested on non-turbo multipliers so far for W3540. But 0001 bios fixes turbo throttling apparently but 0007 doesn't which is bios i'm still on.
