Biostar h55a+ cpu support

[elias4]

I was just wondering if my motherboard biostar h55a+ can support a intel xeon x3440 or x3470 cpu.
And thank you in advance.

X3470 is literally the same chip as i7-870, with the exception of memory controller. And i7 870 is in biostar's cpu support list, so yeah, you should be fine running both chips on that board.

H55 chips do support oc'ing, but its very hard and not really recommended. You may oc it or you may not.
