It says it has 3 PCIE 3.0 and 4 PCI E x1 for a total of 7 PCIE slots but I havent seen anyone talk about this before, can anyone confirm for me? Couldn't find much on Google either. Thanks.

In the past, you needed to use Linux because Windows only supported up to 4 cards (Linux = 8 ). CGminer/AMD software might have changed this though. (Just like how we no longer need dummy plugs)

(Just like how we no longer need dummy plugs) Windoze actually supports 8 GPU's, 8 GPU cores that is though, so with dual GPU cards such as 7990s you can only run 4 cards.
