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.

Yes, it should work.

short answer, 'no'

Yeah, you'll need some of those PCIe extension cables to fit them all, and the proper PSU, but yeah it will work. 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)

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.

Yeah, I think you may be right. A quick search is telling me that the x86 architecture will only support 4, while x64 will run 8. So I guess it depends on what you are running.

I will be using 1 7950 and 6 r9 280x's, I believe they are single core..so at the very least it should be able to run 6 cards for sure right without any shorting?
